I think a lot of people would be interested if it felt that they were collaborating more as a group rather than just on their own. I know I am just an average user of Open library. I contributed a lot by adding and correcting records of books I was familiar with when I first found the site, but slowed down dramatically when I felt like there was an ocean of books, a very long wait for features to combine duplicate works and editions, and no sense that there was any organized effort to make anything come to together logically. Maybe that's not what you're talking about... but it would be cool to be able to discuss whats going on with fellow users, and maybe work together on specific authors, publishers, subjects, series... you name it.
