Karen’s going nuts with this and I love it! He place of work, the Southwest Iowa Library Service Area is now using the LibraryThing blog widget as is the Atlantic Public Library. I’m wondering about the phrase “my library” which is automatically being generates by the widget as it doesn’t work all that well in a library situation. I’m going to work with Karen and the folks at LibrayThing to see if we can get that tweaked.
