Open Library

From the creators of the Internet Archive, Open Library strives to collect "all the world's information about all the world's books and made it available for everyone to view and update." It has amazing potential, along with some tremendous implications on the library community. They want to use a structured system to catalog all the books in the world, but they'll do so by allowing people to make changes as they see fit. Image LC Classification System meets Wikipedia.
