LibraryThing Offers A Million Covers

10 Aug 2008

This is pretty awesome news. LibraryThing is offering a webservice to download book covers, over a million user-contributed images. LibraryThing also just announced they have 30 million books in their user libraries. Pretty amazing.

Eventually, maybe I can add an interface for Tellico so that users can add a LibraryThing Developer Key and grab covers directly.
