Can I have two accounts/libraries on the same email?

Hi, new-ish member here. I've been using LibraryThing to catalogue books for my church's library, but I would also like to catalog my own personal collection at home in a different library, preferably using the same email. I believe there is a way to do that on LibraryThing, but I haven't been able to find it. Could I get a hand?

>1 lamoillevalleygbc: If you need them totally separate, you need to create a second account.

You can add them to this one in a separate collection and remove that from TinyCat (if you use that for your library) but anyone looking at your profile will see both sets.

PS: You don’t really need a mail to join but if you want to have both accounts to use the same mail, that can get tricky if you ever need to recover a password for example (I had the same mail on 2 account for a bit and decided to change one of them at one point). Not even sure if the system will allow the same mail these days. :)

>1 lamoillevalleygbc: Yes, you can make multiple accounts with the same email address. Just log out and then create a new account.
