Import via paste

I've added a third way to import data into LibraryThing: a simple paste box. This makes it a lot easier to import from "protected" pages--pages LibraryThing would need your password to "see." (These include purchases, library checkout summaries and so forth). Just get the "source" for the page (a menu option on all browsers) and cut and paste it into the import page.

Hi,

I just did a little tutorial on how to use a
Red Laser Barcode Scanner iPhone App and the paste box to upload books while wandering around your house.

It's here:
