Virtual Personal Library

I think that LibraryThing is a valuable application for teachers to use with their students.  It can be used to publish summer reading lists, or recommended readings for parents to use to choose books to read with their children which will support what they are learning in class.  I also find that in a public library, the librarian can put a book list together for each age group to assist parents and individuals to find books that fit their reading level and helping expand their reading.  This could also be used to put virtual library groups together of books that are like other books, did you like "The Wizard of Oz"  you might like "Alice in Wonderland" or The "Harry Potter" series.
