I really like social cataloging. I am as a rule a very organized person and I like structure. Dewey and LC are necessary and important for library structure, but their headings don't always reflect current thinking and language. I really can appreciate the option of giving tags to books that reflect local thinking. After reading all of the articles and watching the video, I decided to sign up for a Library Thing account. While it does have it cons, I think it is the best fit for my library and my situation. I am looking forward to using it professionally and personally.
Great Method! This is one of the method that I can see every library using in some format.
