I started using zotero after reading about it in the nytimes, I guess it's about 11 years ago. I'm pretty sure it's this article, because its the same date as the first book I added. https://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/12/16/defeating-b...

I mostly just used it for keeping lists of books with tags (to read, which library has them, on my kindle etc) and some notes. The bibliography report is nice. I know its is targeted toward research, but it really is good for people who just like to read books if for nothing else to remember what they have read!

I think the really nice thing about it is how easy it is to add books. When I was using a kindle a lot, just add it from amazon. Recently I've been reading a lot more books from archive.org, and again its really easy to add it, just one click.
