Import from LibraryThing

Your LibraryThing catalog, with ratings and the dates you read, from its export file.

3 min5 steps Open Import
  1. Open LibraryThing’s export page

    Sign in at LibraryThing and go to More, then Import/Export, or open librarything.com/export.php.

  2. Export as tab-delimited text

    Choose Tab-Delimited Text (or CSV if offered), then Export all books. To bring in only part of your catalog, filter first (for example Read but unowned or a collection) and choose Export filtered.

  3. Open Import, then Spreadsheet

    In Audiostacks, choose Import, then Spreadsheet.

  4. Drop the file in

    Drop the file on the box. Audiostacks recognises LibraryThing’s columns: title, primary author, rating, and the dates you started and finished.

  5. Check and import

    Books with a read date land in Finished. Check the list and choose Import.

Good to know

The Excel file won’t open
Use Tab-Delimited Text instead. Audiostacks reads text and CSV files, not .xls.
