Library Thing

The other night, I spent some time working with Library Thing. I have a friend who is a reading specialist, and she has asked me a few times if I will help her organize the collection of books that she shares with her graduate students. Well, cataloging is not my favorite part of librarianship, so I have been looking at solutions that Lisa can use on her own to organize her collection of about 3 or 4bookshelves. Library thing looks perfect for this. Lisa can tag each book with the reading level and whatever else she wants to use that makes sense to her and her students. She can even create a "call number" for each book that corresponds with the tags and organize the books with these on the shelf! Great. One problem solved!
