What are tags? Tags are keywords and labels used to categorize books.
What do I do? Clicking on tags is another way to find books in this library.
Where do these tags come from? The tags here come from LibraryThing, a book cataloging website. Because people are different, you will occasionally run across a tag that's irrelevant, wrong, or just plain strange. The variation in tag font is a reflection of how many LibraryThing members have chosen to assign that particular tag.
Can I add my own tags? At present, you cannot add your own tags, but will be able to soon.
