OK, if I want to import my reading statistics to #OpenLibrary, I need a CSV file in the #Goodreads export format. I don't have a Goodreads account, so can anyone tell me what an exported file from there looks like? I'm sure I'll be able to go from my #Libby and maybe #KOReader exports to that format (after all, ETL is a big part or my job), if only I knew what it's supposed to be.

PS: yes, since I'm not over the @bookrastinating catastrophe, I'm trying something other than #bookwyrm for now.

I realised that #koreader actually has pretty neat reading statistics, which I can easily back up to my mailbox cloud using #webdav. I now have an (almost empty) #sqlite database which I haven't looked at yet, but it made me wonder if I could also read books from my #library I borrowed via #libby in KOReader instead. Well, the answer seems to be yes, with an ACSM plugin!

Today I finished reading 'The Thursday Murder Club' on #Libby and I still can't put any of my latest reading history on #bookcrastinating because it's still dead. 😫
Now, book number 2 in the TMC series by Richard Osman comes with a four week wait at my library, so what to read next? I didn't really feel like starting something new, then my open browser tabs reminded me that 'Platform Decay' by Martha Wells came out and I still have to buy that.

Looking at my Libby holds and I have like 40 suspended holds. I forgot why I placed more than half of those on hold! I am wishing Libby would let us attach private notes to books. I read a book twice, loved it both times, but I forgot I read it the first time. I have an offline text file of titles I want to place on hold and I could keep notes in that but still, private notes in/on Libby or even Hoopla would be amazing! #Hoopla #HooplaDigital #Libby #LibbyApp

Has anyone figured out how to hack a #Kindle so it works with #Libby?

@dbattistella I love the sentiment but I do like that my public danish #libraries provides acces to its own steaming service that i assume is hosted on some sort of #datacentres. Shout out to #libby for being my favorite source of audiobooks.
