Hello,
Happy New Year!
With the new year's start, let's get back on this project!

Hopefully, people will still bear with me on getting this group off the ground. The holidays, travel, and poor memory skills kind of took over for a few months.

So M'rella proposed a thread for LibraryThing tips & tricks. And I'm personally REALLY, REALLY new to LibraryThing.

UPDATE:
Looks like the group is open. Books aren't tracked.

So if there's something on this site that needs correcting, contact me or post here.

Groups don't hold books, members hold books. Members can add anything they want to their own libraries.

also, putting square brackets around something on LT makes it into a book title

So if you put something in square brackets it will format as a book title, which is probably not what you want above.

But if you want to talk about a book, like Winter's Orbit, then putting the title in square brackets makes it a link to that book.

People don't need to email you; they can just leave a message on your profile.

In fact, it's probably better not to have your email out here. Although the group is "join to post", anyone can read it and see your email.
