LibraryThing.com is currently free.

LibraryThing is a book cataloging site and a community of and for readers.

I've never seen any trolling be tolerated.

There's a Web site and free apps for iOS and Android.

You can catalog your books, (and review them) as well as talk about books.

There's even a field in your AW profile to link to your LibraryThing catalog.

Ordinarily, the first 250 are free and a life membership is $25.00.

Right now, you can get a life membership for free by registering.

I love Librarything and I don't even care that DAMMIT! I have paid for a lifetime membership.

Looks interesting, though it's going to take literally forever to add books... (Seriously, I have north of 1000 books to add...)

It's pretty fast using the app on a smart phone; scan/photo the bar code and LibraryThing propagates the publication and other data for you.

And it's a surprisingly calming activity during self-isolation.

It's a great site and app. I paid the $25, but I'm glad it's free for people to use now. It's great when you want to keep track of your books (and have a virtual library) but have no more storage in your house or have to get rid of books. This way, with OpenLibrary, you feel that you're not losing anything. Truly cool website.
