Singing Loudly

Today, via both Gapers Block and Did You Know?, I came across this link.

This is very cool. It's a little gizmo that allows you to look up a book on Amazon, click on a link in your bookmark bar, and be whisked away to the relevant page for that book on your library's website. That is to say, you're looking at an item on Amazon, you click a button, and you know immediately whether it's in your library's collection.

It also works for university libraries, and from booky sites other than Amazon. What matters is that the library has its catalogue online using one of several programs, and that the booky site has ISBN information in the URL for the specific book's page. Go see if your library can do this too.
