Wednesday Web of the Week: Open Library

Web Address: http://openlibrary.org/


No, it's not a new magic password, although it would be nice to have one that opened the library.  There are other online tools that allow us to work with books, but for those who really love tracking and managing the books in the world, or maybe you just like contributing.  Open Library lets you become the Librarian.  Tools allow you top edit book information, editions, and even cover art.  All with the goal of making more information about books available.  So, whether you are looking for information on all existing editions of Moby Dick, or just want to make a little contribution to the world of knowledge, Open Library can be a resource.

Welcome to Jorgie Learning

I really am learning and this blog is maintained both as a record of some of what I am doing as well as a place for me to train and teach others about creating an online presence. So please don't mind the dust. We aren't remodeling we are learning!

Visit some of my other blogs or the other blogs I find mildly entertaining for a more polished feel.
