I grudgingly opened my Library Thing account, being grumpy about yet another sign-in, and thinking - ok here's another tool that looks cool, but I don't have time for.
However, now that I've added a few things and added my account to my blog, I am actually hoping to use this tool. I can see many uses for it at our library in Readers Services. I often get patrons coming in with long handwritten lists of books they have read or want to read, and I will show them this tool. We can also use it to keep reading lists by topic or readalike. It would be a nice way to do more unusual groupings like YA vampire books, as opposed to Janet Evanovich readalikes.
I like it, I'll recommend it, I hope we can use it in Readers Services.
