Who has a book?

I've added a small section to work pages. The "Members" section shows who of your friends, interesting libraries and other connections have the work.

It also surveys the Legacy Libraries, a member project to catalog the libraries of famous dead people. So you can find out if Hemingway and Marie Antoinette owned, say, the Lusiads (Yes, they did). I think it gives this project—now growing quite impressive—a deserved boost

Discuss here.

LOL I saw this just a few minutes ago on a work and thought it was just something I'd never noticed before! It's very interesting.

Love the fact that you guys are continually improving the site in such creative data-oriented ways, plus I like that I can track who among my "interesting libraries" and "top XX libraries" also have one of my books. And tracking Legacy library connections is way cool!
