Shelfari-A Fun, Social Way to Share Book Recommendations

Shelfari is a social cataloging website for books.  Users can create a bookshelf to share what they have read, review their favorite books, and join groups to discuss various books.

Librarians across the district are making their own "Shelves" to share the new books coming to the library.

Long/Sappington Elementary School

Sperreng Middle School
Lindbergh High School


Teacher Christina Phillips is using her Shelfari with students to share book recommendations for summer reading.  What a great way to encourage reading and sharing of great books!
