Yes - I think Goodreads and LibraryThing could be effective readers advisory tools.
I checked out all 3 sites and really like the Goodreads site the best. I like that I can keep track of what I read, and that I can get infomation about books I didn't know about on it. I really enjoyed the discussion groups the best.
In my opinion, Library staff might use it to find out about books they wouldn't normally have been exposed to. This could make their reading habits more eclectic and give them more information for recommended reading to customers.
