Week 5 Thing 11

BookThing was very easy to use and might be helpful for Library customers who cannot remember whether they have already a book or not. Most of our avid readers would need lifetime memberships as they would have hundreds of books in their libraries. Novelist allows customers to make lists of books after creating an personal account, but I think you are limited to titles found on their site.

Week 6 Thing 16

I enjoyed Princeton Public Library’s Book Lover’s Wiki. It was a part of the 2006 Summer Reading Program for Adults and had 207 reviews posted into 17 different categories. Customers could add their review directly to the wiki, email it to the Library or hand deliver the review to the Welcome Desk. The Library staff entered the reviews emailed or hand delivered to the Library onto the wiki. This was an interesting way to introduce new technology to the reading public.
