Just wondering if anyone includes CDs and DVDs in their catalog with LibraryThing?

It can be done (and some people do), but not easily, since the fields available don't really lend themselves to cataloguing music or films. If you do decide to do so, please indicate in the title that it's a CD or DVD. That way, it won't get combined with a book by the same name.

Some people use Rate Your Music for CDs (and other music media) and Take 11 for films.

We've had some discussion previously on the topic. I point you to such so that you can see what suggestions folks made:

Anyway....

Oooooo a Charlotte library.

Sounds like an excuse for one of them cataloging parties. :)

Please do me a favor and take a second and make sure I got all of the campus libraries in here correctly:

The music library is not in there as I had not known it existed. (Ie it's not on the library website.)

thanks,

Yes, the libraries are all correct on there. The reason why the Music Library isn't listed is because it's under the Music Department and not a part of the main Campus Library.

#2 - Thanks for the heads-up on Rate Your Music - I hadn't heard of that, so I'm giving it a try for my music. I've been using GuruLib: which is excellent (for cataloguing) when it's working, but has a tendency to go AWOL - which it is at the time of posting, so I won't bother with a link.

I'm already using Take11 for my DVDs (and VHS) and I find it pretty good - perhaps not quite as easy to use as Gurulib, but much more reliable.
