They are taped on with packing tape (But if anyone wants to donate archival quality paper and tape, that would be great).

− | ==Removing from the Collection== | + | == More Info == |
− | If adding an updated version of the book, just tag it and put the old book in the plastic basket next to the shelves. If you think a book sucks, rate it on LibraryThing with a brief review. Then move the book to the Removed collection on the site. Attach a piece of paper to the book that says Removed and a date 2 weeks from the date moved. Put the book in the plastic basket.
