Main Site

• PHP
• mysql running both innodb and myISAM engines for various tables
• Javascript
• I think every employee of LibraryThing uses a Mac. It's not a requirement but all of us were already Mac people before we came to LT. Coincidence?
• The system itself runs on multiple Dell PowerEdge servers
• Solr is used for full-site searches.
  • Conversely, the in-catalog search is a home-brewed concoction put together by Christopher Holland (conceptDawg) based off of Casey Durfee's idea to use grep for the job.

Library Interaction

LibraryThing for Libraries and the library MARC parsing when adding books to the main site.
