What
Bookcrossing is an online platform where you can register books and release them into the world. People can log whenever they encounter one of the books, so that books are tracked. We started adding books from our collection to bookcrossing. It serves multiple purposes:
- Get rid of unused books
- Share knowledge
- Have an online list of books we actually have
- Get more people acquainted with NURDspace
Books that we already entered can be found here.
Labels
We are out of bookcrossing labels. We could:
- Order labels
- Make labels
But! We can just print labels from GHBot:
!bclabel <BCID>
Where BCID is the BookCrossing ID (including hyphen), for instance:
!bclabel 669-15157999
