Hi Roger, Great question. We certainly imagined that the idea of collaborative lists would be useful and popular as we were conceiving V1, and have had the same request from other circles. Also, the possibility that a list could be kept private.
We're going to let the feature settle for a little while, but it's very likely that we'll look towards introducing a way for people to collaborate on list building. Are there other group-like features that people could see being useful on Open Library?
