Continuing my love affair with Silicon Valley libraries: a bookmarklet for local library fans.
Drag the following to your toolbar, or right click and choose “add to Bookmarks”: SearchLib
Click on it when you’re on an Amazon book page (like this one), and it will automatically search for all copies of that book in the local interlibrary loan network (like this result). If it’s not at your local branch, it can be delivered – generally within the week, in my experience.
It’s a blatant copy of Jon Udell’s great big pile of bookmarklets that do the same thing for other library catalog systems.
