LibraryThing is awesome. It’s pretty much the only way my library can possibly be in any sort of order and the database export is the starting point for the cluster analysis shelving project. On top of that it’s a great community of tech people with a love for books, real actual physical printed books, which is a rare and valuable quality in the world today.
Unfortunately, in the process of cataloging and double-checking books as I boxed them up to take over to the new house, I discovered that some of the auto-generated physical dimensions are out-of-order (swapping height and length, length and thickness, etc.) or wrong.
Which means that I am now ~1% done with verifying and/or entering the dimensions of the books piled throughout the first floor.
So…
