You may be aware that unless we post to this group it will be archived and forgotten.

This is an appeal to members to find more South Africans to use this marvelous website. Alas after 13 years I have not converted one South African to use this site.

We really lag behind our fellow English speaking countries, especially Australia.

That is a shame, yes. What do most South Africans use? Any idea?

Nothing it seems. I have not come across any of my reader friends that do any cataloging at all. Goodreads does not have any statistics to establish country of origin.

I am a South African devotee of this site and I have introduced a few members . It is the best available I shall give a punt on the Heritage Portal . Www.heritageportal.co.za

Most of us are still in shock after the tragic loss of priceless books and treasures in the devastating fire that destroyed the Jagger Reading Room at UCT.
