Do you use any of the online book-cataloguing sites, like Library Thing or Shelfari? Why or why not? (Or . . . do you have absolutely no idea what I’m talking to?? (grin))
If not an online catalog, do you use any other method to catalog your book collection? Excel spreadsheets, index cards, a notebook, anything?
Don’t forget to leave a link to your actual response (so people don’t have to go searching for it) in the comments—or if you prefer, leave your answers in the comments themselves!
P.S. Incidentally, folks, did you see the clever post Joanna put together with all our Connecting Words from a couple weeks ago? Not to mention, of course Brad’s winner to the contest.

I would love to set up something like that, but haven’t as yet. No catalog or list of all of our books anywhere. We do take a video of the various bookcases once in a while, for insurance purposes, but that is about it.
We have several hundred books, many of them old enough that they won’t automatically have ISBNs, etc, so cataloging them will be a major task. Some day!
Here you go!

Not a great cataloguer, I’m afraid. Here are the reasons why.

Why would I spend time cataloging my books, time I could spend reading them?
A little behind schedule this week…

I keep a commonplace book, a database and have recently joined GoodReads…

Library Thing! Here is my full response.
I use Goodreads as it’s (IMHO) better than Shelfari and cheaper than LibraryThing (i.e. FREE for any number of books 😀 )
hi! I haven’t been very serious lately, but I managed to catch up. You can my answer to this question and the previous ones here :
http://litdetective.canalblog.com/
So I’m a little late.
Catching up!
I’m on Library Thing and Good Reads but I need to update them both 😛 I once tried to create a database for my books but I a) got confused with the software (anyone who knows how fast I pick up software knows that is really saying something lol and b) I just have too many books to do that 😛 The Web thing works well for me 🙂
I used to keep a reading log, but january 2007 I found LibraryThing and I am a fanatic now, not just for the catalogue feature but for the community and reference parts too!
3 months or so late… eek!
It’s under the cut here.
