It cannot be that the people should grow in grace unless they give themselves

to reading. A reading people will always be a knowing people. ~~John Wesley

Reading Program catalog moved to LibraryThing


A new cataloging site for Reading Program books has been launched at LibraryThing. It works better to organize the lists in groupings that can be sorted and searched easier than the Google Books library. It is a public site and can be viewed without you joining.

Books lists are entered into collections, including each of the UMW Reading Program categories. The books we have in our church library are in the "Your library" collection. "All collections" is the entire list of books that qualify for the current Reading Program Plans.

LibraryThing gives library-quality data for each book. Google Books previews can be accessed from the individual book pages if available.

A pull down menu opens the list of collections.

You can show books as a list or just the covers.

Tapping on column headings will sort under that heading. Tap again and the order will reverse. Other options for lists and pages are available by clicking many of the features on the site. You won't be making permanent changes, so go ahead and explore!
