# 11 Librarything and everything else

So here's another thing I never knew existed....Facebook for books! It's another thing to play about with over time and see how useful it is. But it's one thing to recall and enter all the books you've read (which, if my brain allowed, would be over 200 and incur a fee), and quite another to imagine accessing my catalogue with my mobile phone. Perhaps at a party when I just can't remember the exact title but know the author? Friends might start worrying about me. Perhaps in a book shop 'cause I can't remember if I've read it? Hmm. I feel a touch of OCD coming along! But I'd like to see how it works linked into a library catalogue.

I know you'll want to dive straight in and look at my books, so here's the most absolutely fabulous thing of all! It's taken me the better part of the afternoon to figure it out, but if you click on the title of this blog, you'll get straight in!

One way and t'other, my horizons are broadening!

We have jsut put LibraryThing through our catalogue so when th epublic search for a book, they also get other similar books that people have suggested.
