LibraryThing #9

I have heard of LibraryThing and once looked into it (I am sure I signed up - can't recall the login details of course!). I never went any further with it - I guess it was a combination of a number of reasons, i.e. don't have a huge collection of monographs to even consider creating a library.

My Father, nonetheless, is a huge fan. He does have a large home library and was so excited to learn about LibraryThing. To this day he continues to use Library Thing.

I can understand why someone with a large personal collection of monographs would find LibraryThing useful. It would also be very interesting to find, and chat with, people who have similar libraries. It would also be very satisfying to have ones own collection catalogued, and seen by others.

I have signed up (and noted my login detials this time!) to LibraryThing, so that I can explore it further. I am very interested in the reviews. My username is Nairarbilibrarian if you are interested!
