Shitlib was first used on XOXO around 2006 or 2007 and if I remember correctly we coined the word. It has since spread:

Earliest usage is one instance on the something awful forum in 2002:

http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3726543&userid=2689

Next usage was in 2008 which appears in the comments of a YouTube video (sounds like he may have been a poster):

Xoxo usage dates back at least to 2009 (it's hard to search), so I think we get a great deal of the credit for it.

Oh my bad. Then the only legit usage was that guy in 2002 who used it one time. I think we can claim independent creation around 2008 or 2009. We have done the nation a service.

You sure? I've seen it on conservative blogs (and I think Free Republic as well). I could have sworn I saw it at least 10 years ago when we were still in the middle of Iraq.

I did a Google search sorted by date and that's all that came up, but maybe google is missing some stuff.

Incredible. Is "reptile" used much outside of xo? I know libpedo never caught on.

I remember when reptile was coined on Xo in response to shitlib. I don't know if it has been used elsewhere, it would be hard to search for. We'd need an Xo research grant into American linguistic studies to figure that out.

Looks like "shitlib" is used on a Columbia-specific message board.

Found a thread dedicated to the craneology of shitlibs (identifying shitlibs just from facial appearance). Our efforts are leading to breakthrough discoveries like this every day.

Nixon uses the term shitlib at least twice that I know of in the White House tapes.

There's a visceral strength and animal intensity to shitlib that libpedo lacks.
