There is also something very similar to this website that a fellow Texas librarian shared with me. It also creates a widget for your blog, shows bookcovers, allows you to review and "star" rate a book, read other reviews. You also have two other shelves - what I'm reading now and what I'm planning to read. www.shelfari.com I've started my list for my fall booktalk next year. Here's my public shelf: http://www.shelfari.com/o1518108949 Now, off to check out goodreads.com! Thanks for sharing : ) Naomi Bates Northwest High School Library Justin, Texas nbates@nisdtx.org 817-215-0203 >>> Sandi Lofton <sandil@OLP.NET> 6/3/2008 9:18 AM >>> I thought I would respond to this through the list also because I have wondered the very same thing and a fellow LM_Netter gave me the best solution through mention of using the site "Goodreads.com" to post book reviews. I signed up for the Goodreads site as a way of archiving and retreiving books I had personally reviewed and discovered a widget to add to your webpage. The widget displays cover pictures of the books you have reviewed. You organize your books on the site into "shelves" that you create. So, you could create a "Summer Reads" shelf, etc. The cover images link not only to your review, but to Amazon for ordering information. You can see my widget at my site: http://tomeraider.net/index_files/page0007.htm I hope to have a library of my own very soon! Sandi Lofton Graduated & Looking in Oklahoma! sandilofton@gmail.com Original message: Date: Mon, 2 Jun 2008 20:54:49 +0000 From: Jackie Galante <galantej@OPTONLINE.NET> Subject: Target: copyright regarding book covers on websites Hi all, I have heard conflicting information about this, and hope that someone can help me with the official answer. I searched the archives, but didn't see anything. Is it a copyright violation to post book cover pictures on my website? I am preparing my summer reading pages, and would like to include them if it is legal. My website is not password protected, so could be viewed by anyone. I am not selling the books, just promoting the reading of the books.
