In my own case, apart from the Fiction_L booklists and archives, the library site I refer to the most (after our own, of course! http://www.bramlib.on.ca/books.htm :) ) is the Waterboro Public Library (http://www.waterborolibrary.org/bklista.htm) for its vast array of booklists. (Thanks so much and kudos to you Molly!)
But I could certainly use some input as we will be revising our website and the Readers' Corner is my area to maintain.

One thing you need to do, Meg, is delete your link to BookBrowser. BB as
such doesn't exist any more; it's part of B&N, and the series lists are
G-O-N-E, gone. You can resurrect the site from the Wayback Machine, but
that's a pain in the stern. I'm working on a site that will have series
information--even more of it, actually--and when I get it done, if I ever
do, I'll announce it here, but until then any of your patrons who click on
that link aren't going to get what they want.
