Task # 7 A Sampling Of Readers Resources

Library Thing
1. Easy to join, not a lot of personal information needed.
2. I found it to be too much of a social networking site.
3. The search was not as simple as other sites.
Goodreads
1. Easy to locate genres
2. Easy registration
3. Good discussion board, although some readers comments should start with a "spoiler alert".
Shelfari
1. Mainly a site for those interested in social networking.
2. Explore Books Section has easy to find areas such as : most popular, subject, tags, authors, etc.
Litlovers
1. I plan to take the lit course for personal development and will blog about my results.
2. Finally! A site that is not mainly so social networking.
AllReaders
1. Searching for plots, settings or character was very easy.
2. Although I did find the site would be useful, Diana and I submitted information on a book she is currently reading (no title or author)but search did not result in suggesting the book we researching.
Boulder Public Library's Goodreads page
1. This is worth considering adding to our site.
2. I don't know enough about our current book blog to consider it as a replacement. I'll leave that decision to those who use it more.
3. I would not be interested in contributing to the content of our current book blog or a Goodreads page.
