Hi all! I was on my iPad and decided to try the app store to see if there was a bookcrossing app, and there was, but I don't think it's affiliated with the bookcrossing we know and love. This is it: http://www.bookcrossi…

In the 48 hours the library has been up, a few people took at least one book, three people left notes in my notebook, and books were added at least three times to my library! Happy happy!
