Library Thing

Are you an avid book reader that can't seem to keep track of what you read? Maybe you're a teacher that enjoys sharing a lot of literature with your students? LibraryThing is the perfect solution! It is an online service that allows you to catalog and categorize your books in a list. All you have to do is search for the title of the book/s you've read and save them to your page. I was introduced to this website from my "Literature for Children" professor. This particular class requires the reading of various children's books and using Library Thing allows us to remember what we have read over the semester. I save each book to my personal profile and then add comments to it that help me remember key things about the book. This will be extremely useful once I start my teaching career because I will be able to pull books from this list and share them with my students! This website also has really cool features like connecting me with people that have read the same books and offering me suggestions for my next read.
