Every layout is tested by printing it to PDF on Letter and A4 paper, so the preview is what you get. Your file stays in your browser.

How to print your Goodreads list

  1. Export your library. On the Goodreads website, open My Books , choose Import and export under Tools, then Export Library. When the link appears, download goodreads_library_export.csv. Step-by-step guide
  2. Drop the file above and tick the shelves you want.
  3. Choose a layout, then click Print or save as PDF.

Three layouts

  • Checklist: a box to tick next to each book, grouped by shelf. Great for a want-to-read list or a reading challenge.
  • Reading log: a table with date read, title, author, your star rating and pages.
  • Compact list: one line per book, so long shelves fit on a few pages.

Sort by author, title, your rating, date added or date read; choose which details to show; and print in large type or black and white.

Frequently asked questions

Can I print my Goodreads shelves?
Goodreads has no print view for your shelves, but it can export your whole library as a CSV file (My Books › Import and export › Export Library). Drop that file above, tick the shelves you want and print a checklist, a reading log or a compact list.
How do I print my want-to-read list?
Load your export and tick only Want to read under Shelves. The Checklist layout gives each book a box to tick when you find it at the library or bookshop.
Can I print what I read this year?
Choose Reading log, tick the Read shelf and sort by date read. Each book shows the date you finished it, your rating and the page count.
The Goodreads export never finishes. What can I do?
Exports can take a while for big libraries, and the page doesn’t always refresh on its own. Our Goodreads export guide has the workarounds.
Is my library uploaded?
No. The file is read in your browser and never leaves your device.
