About my library I started by using LibraryThing mainly to list books I want to look at (at my local library). I've now added most of our books though there are still some in the roof (the owned books include titles my husband bought, though the 'wish list' and 'to look at' titles noted are just mine). So that the tags concerning ownership (or not) and main category of book sort first alphabetically in tags I have used numbers and the at symbol as follows:
1 = books I/we own;
2 = books I've seen and want to buy;
3 = books I've seen and possibly want to buy (e.g. if cheap);
4 = books I've not seen yet but possibly want to buy anyway;
5 = books I want to look at (the general 'catch-all');
6 = books I've now seen but don't want to buy;
7 = books just noted as might be useful reference books sometime but don't particularly want to look at or buy.
8 = books I/we have owned but have got rid of
@f = fiction;
@n = non-fiction
(these last two may not always be accurately assigned but give me an idea where in the library to look for the book). Other @something tags are to do with locations and then there are odds and ends of other tags such as BM for bookmooch etc
