Lesson 10: LibraryThing

LibraryThing is easy to use. The Search, with its various options, works well. Everything is just a click away. Zeitgeist page, for example, is full of interesting statistics about books and authors; for those who wants to join a group that covers a specific topic or a title, there is a part of the site called Groups, etc.

Membership is optional. I like the combination of a library catalogue and a social networking space. LibraryThing looks like a gigantic book club; you can choose to visit and observe, or you can become an active contributor.
