How it works
Search for a book, add it to your shelf, mark it as read. That's it. No onboarding wizard, no account creation, no tutorial. Just your books.
Search millions of books powered by Open Library — the world's largest open book database. Add books instantly by title, author, or ISBN. No proprietary database, no lock-in.
Bring your entire reading history with you. Export your Goodreads data and import it into OpenBookshelf in seconds. Keep your shelves, your ratings, your reading dates — without starting over.
Your library stays up to date on every device automatically with iCloud. Add a book on your iPhone, see it on your iPad. No account required — it just works.
No algorithmic recommendations. No social feed. No reading challenges designed to make you feel guilty. No ads. No behavioral tracking. No subscription that charges you monthly to maintain a book list.
OpenBookshelf does one thing well: it helps you keep track of what you've read, what you're reading, and what you want to read next. Nothing more. Nothing less.
