Disappointment at first, because I did not see it! Then I noticed there you do not put one but two searchboxes on the same page, and as I found out the one on top is where LibraryThing for Libraries is, not in the central searchbox. Which is a little confusing, but the LibraryThing for Libraries add-on seems to works great. Can't wait to get that for my library!

Since you're on iii too, it would look pretty much just like it does in our catalog. It's right up your alley- it's fun and good for patrons without being a big pain for your tech services department. thanks for the plug, cogsci! Hi Hillary! It’s insanely exciting.

I've been dying to see what would happen with Library Thing and our catalogs since I heard about it in April. Now I can't wait to show my OR library friends. Nice work! Kate — this is awesome!

I am so going to steal that "dark arts of cataloging" line from you (perhaps tech services needs a new sign...) I'm not a cataloger, either, but I know fun metadata when I see it! The tag browser is way faster today (yay Tim!), so I hope everyone keeps playing in our catalog. Thanks Doug! We’re pretty excited!

Nice work, good job, kudos, and hooba hobas to you. Though I'm not much of a 'dark arts of cataloging' type and some of the more technical stuff goes over my head, I certainly appreciate forward thinking on behalf of patrons! Doug Lord Hi Kate,
