LibraryThing is an online service to help people catalog their books easily. You can access your catalog from anywhere—even on your mobile phone. Because everyone catalogs together, LibraryThing also connects people with the same books, comes up with suggestions for what to read next, and so forth.
In April 2013, LibraryThing staff and members collaborated to write What makes LibraryThing LibraryThing?, a blog post outlining what we see as the key elements of LibraryThing.
What software does it require?
None. If you can read this, you can use LibraryThing.
What does it cost?
A free account allows you to catalog up to 200 books. A paid account allows you to catalog any number of books. Paid personal accounts cost $10 for a year or $25 for a lifetime. (See here for organizational accounts.) I conservatively predict the revenue will enable me to recline all day on an enormous pile of gold.
What information do I need to give up?
None. Setting up an account requires only a user name and a password. We do strongly encourage you to include your email address when you sign up—this is very helpful in case you ever forget your password. You can also edit your profile to make yours a "private" account. With a private account, nobody else can see what books you have.
What else does LibraryThing do?
LibraryThing offers powerful tools for cataloging and tracking your books, music, AND movies, with access to the Library of Congress, six national Amazon sites, and more than 1,000 libraries worldwide. Edit your information, search and sort it, "tag" books with your own subjects, and use various classification systems (including the Library of Congress, Dewey Decimal, or other custom systems) to organize your collection. Use the LibraryThing iOS App to scan books to your library from the palm of your hand.
If you want it, LibraryThing is also a great social networking space, often described as "Facebook for books." You can check out other peoples' libraries, see whose library is most similar to yours, swap reading suggestions, and more. Sign up to win free books through our Early Reviewers and Member Giveaways programs. Or, find the best book recommendations for your next reads, based on the collective intelligence of the other libraries.

Who is behind LibraryThing?
LibraryThing was created by Tim Spalding, a web developer and web publisher based in Portland, Maine. Tim also runs www.isidore-of-seville.com and www.ancientlibrary.com. Since becoming a "real" business in May 2006, LibraryThing now employs a number of talented people. More about the rest of the team on the Who we are page.
Where does LibraryThing get its information?
LibraryThing uses Amazon and libraries that provide open access to their collections with the Z39.50 protocol. The protocol is used by a variety of desktop programs, notably bibliographic software like EndNote. LibraryThing appears to be the first mainstream web use.
But where do I get the t-shirt?
Right here! And other cool swag!
Who else should we thank?
We also use uClassify, and Yusuke Kamiyamane's icons.
