Have you ever bought a book that sounded terrific only to discover you had its twin at home? Have you ever looked at a book and it seems familiar but you just aren't sure if you've read it before? I've done it more than I would like to admit.
My home library is not sorted. At best its on the shelf by where I can fit it. I've even toyed with inventorying my collection. That was over whelming! And I didn't stick with it.
Today I was reading ilearn technology and her post
All three apps let you scan the barcode and add the book to collection.
I know google has had a similar program for a long time. Except you have to type in all the information. I love being able to scan and everything is DONE!
This is a great resource for the classroom library. I need to play with this to see how to tweak it so that I can keep track which books I buy each year for taxes. Maybe more importantly I won't buy so many twins!
