Just noting that the spam was written at 2:46. How fast can we remove it?

We flag both the spam and the profile of the spammer.

Hi and welcome - you haven't entered many books, but we already share one - Coyote America!, a book I quite enjoyed reading since I've always sympathized with the plight and persecution of coyotes in America. Lucky for them it's not a battle we can win easily.

Hi, I'm new. My name is Jess (they/them). I had some books logged in here, but I messed it up by trying to import my books from libib, so I deleted all of them. I will rescan my collection soon.

>12 NANation: Hi, welcome. To add to gilroy's info, it is primarily a platform to catalogue your books. Here in talk, members also discuss books and a variety of other topics, depending on the group.

Hi I am a new member. I saw this page incidentally. I would like to know how can I use this page effectively as a small librarian

>15 nazneenrahman: Probably best asked in https://www.librarything.com/ngroups/78/Librarians-who-LibraryThing as you are more likely to get useful responses. Or TinyCat group since you'll need to use that frontend to manage patrons and such.

Hi! I am a new member as of just a few minutes ago. I am very active on Goodreads but thought I'd branch out. Looking forward to finding out what this site offers and meeting new readers/friends.

>17 scottrhee1972: Welcome. For help with LT features and functionality you might want to bookmark https://wiki.librarything.com/index.php/Category:HelpThing

There were only a few things I couldn't find answers to there when I first joined and was figuring out how the site worked. :)

Hello everyone. I'm a noob here just saying hi. Does anyone know if any fine presses have done or focus on Gnostic texts?

I am afraid I can't help with that, but there is a group that is specifically for discussion of fine press books. You might try that. Here's the link to that forum: https://www.librarything.com/ngroups/3279/Fine-Press-Forum
