Thing 16

Um, LibraryThing, good!  I like.  I spent an hour just adding books for fun, a true English teacher and book lover.  I actually created a hyperlink thingy and spreadsheet back in the early 1990’s where I catalogued all of my classroom titles.  I went so far as to type in the names, authors, ISBN, publishers, publishing dates and, get this, went to the Library of Congress site for descriptions then cut and pasted.   Never again!  Simply go to LT!   I thought of a couple of personal uses for it, such as, cataloguing my class books (again), and a great way for my mother to keep track of what she has read (always forgetting if she read a title or not!)  In the class room I think I can use this tool with book groups and independent reading for keeping track of who read or is reading what!  I’ll play and figure it out!  But definitely a geek spot for me!
