Personal Librarian

A cozy, no‑overdue‑fees home for your whole reading life.

Personal Librarian is your digital library assistant inside ChatGPT. Log physical books, Kindle titles, and audiobooks; track what you’re reading, what you’ve finished, and what’s still on your TBR; and export clean lists whenever you need them. Because it lives on the Glee‑fully Treasured Finds branch, your shelves stay in sync with gifts, decor, supplies, and the rest of your curated finds.

Launch “Personal Librarian” in ChatGPT Back to Glee‑fully Treasured Finds

Opens in ChatGPT in a new tab. Best used with your book stack, wishlists, and notes within reach.

What this Tool‑ette does

A calm, searchable home for every book you own, read, or want to remember.

Core purpose

Personal Librarian keeps a single, structured record of your reading life — what you own, what you’re in the middle of, what you’ve finished, and what you’re eyeing next. Instead of juggling screenshots, stacks on the nightstand, and half‑finished lists, you get one calm log you can actually maintain.

Best for

Great if you’re the person with books in every room and no clue what you’ve already read. Perfect for mood readers, parents tracking family reading, or anyone who wants to see their habits over time without turning reading into a second job.

Inputs & outputs

You bring the messy bits — half‑typed lists, titles you remember, notes from other apps. Personal Librarian turns them into a clean, reusable view.

  • Inputs: titles, authors, formats, quick notes, existing lists
  • Outputs: tidy tables by status, format, genre, or rating
  • Exports: CSV, DOCX‑friendly tables, or simple text blocks

Core functions (Leaves)

Concrete, repeatable actions this GPT can take on your behalf — no spreadsheet skills required.

  • FUNCTION⚙️ (🍃Leaf) – Log Books by Title & Author: Capture physical copies, Kindle titles, audiobooks, and more in a consistent schema (title, author, format, series, edition, and notes) so you don’t have to rebuild it every time you sit down to organize.
  • FUNCTION⚙️ (🍃Leaf) – Track Reading Status: Mark each book as unread, reading, finished, or abandoned, then reshuffle your view by “currently reading,” “on deck,” or “done and dusted” with a single prompt.
  • FUNCTION⚙️ (🍃Leaf) – Rate & Reflect: Add star ratings and short impressions, pull highlights about what you loved (or didn’t), and spot patterns in your reading tastes over time — genres, authors, or themes you keep coming back to.
  • FUNCTION⚙️ (🍃Leaf) – Wishlist & Tag: Save books you want to try later and tag them by genre, series, author, mood, season, or your own custom labels that match the rest of the Glee‑fully Toolbox.
  • FUNCTION⚙️ (🍃Leaf) – Export or Share Your Library: Export slices of your library — like “holiday reads,” “kid‑friendly,” or “five‑star favorites” — as CSV, DOCX‑ready tables, or simple text blocks you can drop into notes, spreadsheets, or other Glee‑fully Tools.

Why use this instead of vanilla ChatGPT?

A blank chat can talk about books. Personal Librarian remembers how you track them.

Pre‑tuned brain

Personal Librarian arrives with a ready‑made structure for books — status, format, tags, ratings, notes, and more. Its instructions tell it how to log and update entries, so you’re not re‑explaining “here’s how I track my shelves” every single session.

Suite‑aware & branch‑smart

This Tool‑ette is a Twig on the Glee‑fully Treasured Finds branch, so it understands how your reading life fits alongside candles, décor, gifts, supplies, and other favorites. It follows the same trunk‑branch‑twig‑leaf structure and BLEED GLEE conventions the rest of the suite uses, which keeps your tags and decisions consistent.

Repeatable, export‑friendly workflows

Instead of one‑off chats, you get repeatable patterns: “Log these new books,” “Show my TBR by genre,” “Build a one‑page reading recap.” Outputs are designed to export cleanly, so you can hand them off to book clubs, planners, or other Glee‑fully Tools without wrestling the formatting.

Getting started

Go from “I should really organize my books” to “hey, that was painless” in a few minutes.

  1. Step 1 – Start small. Grab 5–10 books you’ve recently bought, borrowed, or finished. Use that small stack as your pilot so you can see how the library feels before you commit your whole shelf.
  2. Step 2 – Copy what you already have. Paste a reading list from Notes, an export from Goodreads/StoryGraph, or just type a handful of titles and authors. Personal Librarian will clean it up and slot each book into your catalog.
  3. Step 3 – Choose your mode. Tell the GPT whether you’re logging your current shelf, building a future TBR, or backfilling your reading history. It will suggest a simple structure and follow‑up prompts that match the way you want to work today.
  4. Step 4 – Save the views that matter. Ask for exports — like a CSV of finished reads this year or a table of “next up” picks — then save them to your notes app, planner, or files so you’re not hunting through old chats later.

Where it lives in the Glee‑fully Toolbox

Personal Librarian is one Twig on a bigger Branch. Here’s how it fits and where you might want to go next.

Parent Tool (Branch)

Personal Librarian lives on the Glee‑fully Treasured Finds branch — the part of your Toolbox that tracks the items and memories you love to collect. From candles to keepsakes, gifts to books, Treasured Finds helps you catalog, tag, and actually enjoy your curated treasures instead of losing them in a closet.

How this Twig plays with the rest

Personal Librarian doesn’t sit alone. Flag a title as “giftable” and send it toward Present Hoarder, surface display‑worthy editions for Decor Detective, or tie favorite authors and moods into your Scentinal or Spirited Journals. The whole branch works like one system, sharing tags, notes, and little decisions across the suite.
