this is for all book lovers
A huge thank-you to Curtis , who pointed me to Jon Udell's Library Lookup site. Jon's done some amazing development of bookmarklets (tiny pieces of JavaScript) that work wonders. Simply go to his site, find your libraries in the lists, and drag those bookmarklets to your browser toolbar. Then, when you're at Amazon or other book-related sites that use ISBNs in the URLs for individual book's description pages, you can simply click on your bookmarklet to find out if your local library has it! Works for public and university libraries, can be customized in various ways. Awesome. I love it when technological experimentation leads to real practical results.
