Hi Randal,
LibraryThing offers a whole slew of enhancements that, supposedly, intergrate with whatever your existing OPAC is. Here is their description of them. Note that at the end of each description they point to a library that's using that particular enhancement. http://www.librarything.com/forlibraries Cheers, Matt ________________________________________ Matt Ball Media and Collections Librarian University of Virginia Charlottesville, VA 22904 mattb...@virginia.edu<mailto:mattb...@virginia.edu> | 434-924-3812 ________________________________ From: videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu [videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu] on behalf of Randal Baier [rba...@emich.edu] Sent: Friday, January 31, 2014 1:43 AM To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu Subject: Re: [Videolib] LibraryThing or goodreads Matt, I use library thing to track book reviews for an academic journal, but have not used it for anything beyond that. The jerwood music library uses library thing too .. I follow their site. http://www.librarything.com/venue/32828/Jerwood-Library-of-the-Performing-Arts-Trinity-Laban-Conservatoire-of-Music-and-Dance But I'm not familiar with the enhancements. Could you tell me a bit more?

And if you're using LibraryThing, are you using their catalog enhancement features? Cheers, Matt
VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
