• (2024-04-23) Laurie Hopper: This extension is my "go to" for books!! It is so helpful and reliable. I like to support local libraries as much as possible. Especially for audio books, but paper books too. I can usually get ahold of newly released books quickly. Thanks!
• (2024-04-20) Dan Herrick: Incredibly useful and reliable.
• (2024-04-17) Vanessa Bishop: My favorite extension. I use it all the time. Thank you!
• (2024-04-14) Earl Crank: I absolutely love it. It's so useful.
• (2024-04-14) Caitlin Keidel: Love this extension. It is extremely helpful!
• (2024-04-12) Nicole Sparks: This makes it so easy to search local (and virtual) libraries!
• (2024-04-12) HM Harris: This is an incredibly powerful and helpful tool. Every library user NEEDS this extension. This extension also helps me see that my library should really add more digital titles (since there is usually a long waiting list for a small number of digital copy of a title and no one checking out multiple physical copies).
• (2024-04-06) Rachael Tierney: Incredibly helpful little tool!
• (2024-04-05) Sam Pler: Such a time (and money) saver
• (2024-04-03) Erin Ellis: So helpful and a time saver!
• (2024-04-02) Laura Ann Dekker: I was reading a Kirkus review of a new book, went to the extension, and with a couple of clicks downloaded the book to my Kindle. Easy and free, and it's a new release. Great!
• (2024-03-30) Carey Reads: I love being able to see if a book is available at my library as I'm shopping for books!
• (2024-03-26) Justin Monisit: Helps so much. Cannot imagine browsing Goodreads or Audible without this extension knowing that I probably don't have to spend money to get something I could get on Hoopla. Makes me glad to use my library
• (2024-03-24) Jim Kelley: Absolutely essential extension if you borrow books from libraries in any way, shape, or form.
• (2024-03-21) Marsha Blevins: This is a life saver! It saves me money on books I need for work and fun. It helps my local library because it gives me a one stop shop to reserve a physical copy locally or borrow an ebook or audio version on the spot. LOVE THIS EXTENSION!
• (2024-03-15) Jim Rain: Very useful and easy to use.
• (2024-03-12) Sierra Prasada: Just makes life a little bit easier and a little bit happier. Thanks!
• (2024-03-10) Elizabeth Metz: Other than maybe my adblocker, this is the extension I use most and definitely get the most out of. It's unobtrusive, and queries both my library and one of the other book services I have (everand), and has saved me from accidentally buying things I have access to for free. It used to be kind of a pain to look up a book on Amazon and then search four different sites (which don't always have the best search engines - Overdrive, I'm looking at you!), and this extension fixes that problem like a charm. I don't ever want to be without it. :)
• (2024-03-10) MAS: This is a great extension. It saves me tons of money. Any time I look at a book or audiobook I can see right on the page if it's available at my library and how much of a wait there is for Overdrive and Hoopla titles. Once in a while there's a title with multiple editions and it can't distinguish between them but as long as you know how it works you can forgive that because otherwise it's fantastic. Responsive developer too. If you consume this type of media you owe it yourself to install this. And don't forget to support your public library!
• (2024-03-08) Alicia Myrick: This is one of the most valuable tech tools for me. Its the first thing I add when I get a new computer even before changing all my settings :). i am an avid reader and this extension has helped me support my love of reading and our local library. I can't talk about how great of an extension this is. I am part of a statewide library system and have that and the branches within a 20 minute radius plus the Libby/hoopla and it loads every time and gives me the best information. Simply the best.
• (2024-03-08) Amy S: I can't rave enough about this extension. As someone who read approximately 400 books last year, most of them borrowed, this made my life SO much easier to find. I have multiple library memberships plus Everand and Hoopla through my local library and having an easy, quick way to find books is so appreciated and easy to use. I've raved to friends in real life and on social media. If you love to read and want to save some money - get this extension.
• (2024-03-05) Geoffrey Ormrod: Fantastically helpful and time saving too. A great product
• (2024-03-04) Eleanor Trombla: literally so incredibly helpful. It works with The Storygraph which is the best book app/website ever, so shout out to this integration.
• (2024-03-03) Johanna White: easy to install, easy to use, immediate value, exactly what an extension is perfect for
• (2024-03-01) Jenna Kelly: This is a great extension, it makes quick references much easier
• (2024-02-26) Jessica Plante: so much easier than searching each library in a separate app/webpage to see if they have a book I'm looking for.
• (2024-02-23) Rachael Shafer: This extension is absolutely amazing and saves me so much time! I no longer have to search multiple libraries to see if a book is available.
• (2024-02-18) Joyce Hiebert: This is the perfect little tool to help me decide whether to borrow or buy a book. I love it!
• (2024-02-15) Gabe Freeman: Awesome, only visible when needed, and deeply appreciated
• (2024-02-14) Suzanne Brown: Absolute life (and money) saver! Highly recommended.
• (2024-02-11) Lance Gilliland: this is by far my most used extension on any browser. I've recommended it many times and find it indispensable.
• (2024-02-08) Bruce Martin: what a great idea - thank you!
• (2024-02-06) Leslie Ann Klein: Only recently found out about this extension and it has been a game changer. It works perfectly and is saving me so much money just by showing up when I am looking at buying a book only to see that one of the libraries where I have a card with has the book available.
• (2024-02-02) Katherine Marschall: I hauve used this app for a while and now have it installed in both the browsers I use. It is easy to set up, super simple and has saved me money. Yea for libraries and yea for this extension!
• (2024-01-31) Kimberly Meredith (evergleam2): I have used this extension for many years. It is so helpful!
• (2024-01-28) Blanca: A must have for everyone who reads and borrows library books. It saves me so much time.
• (2024-01-27) Vicki Soloniuk: Helpful, saves me a ton of money. I have told a lot of people about this.
• (2024-01-27) Allison J.: Gone are the days of checking every library's every app whenever I'm interested in a book! LOVE IT!
• (2024-01-20) Zoe Diaz Rodriguez: This is **the** extension I have been wanting and needing for YEARS. Bravo! If you work in a library, I strongly recommend adding this extension to your daily work-flow. It makes it so much easier to communicate with patrons. It works in Fantastic Fiction!! So so helpful.
• (2024-01-19) Ben Lamm: I love this extension!
• (2024-01-17) Elaine Grigg Dean: I love this extension. I have multiple library cards and it makes it so easy to see what books are available in a single search. I use it all the time.
• (2024-01-15) Petrina Gillman: Love, love, love this extension. My strong preference is to borrow books. This extension quickly searches the public libraries, of which I am a member, to determine if available. Don't hesitate in adding this extension to your browser.
• (2024-01-11) Annette Price: This genuinely has been so helpful. It has not only helped me figure out where to get a book, but also to remember that I should always try to get my books via the library rather than paying for the Kindle or Audible versions of them.
• (2024-01-09) Janice: There are ways this extension could be more helpful. I really wish that when I logged into Chrome in a new computer, that my settings for this would come over. I hate having to do all the stuff again because I have so much - like Hoopla and Amazon (and Audible! I didn't know this had Audible), and all 5 Libby libraries I use. BUT it certainly/clearly is so helpful, it's worth the "pain" of have to redo for each computer. Thanks for this extension!
• (2024-01-03) Dina Roberts: This extension is a must have for me. It's the first thing I added when I got a new laptop, It always works, it's always correct, and it's always easy to either check out the book or place a hold on it.
• (2024-01-02) Sharon Chinn-Heritch: I use this app extensively; it works well and cleanly, with very little lag time. I give it five stars.
• (2023-12-30) Darel Seow: Absolutely amazing, was searching for something like this for the longest time and it really saves me so much time and money when you find out that something you want can be borrowed!
• (2023-12-27) Loraine Y: A must-have! I don't know what I'd do without it!
• (2023-12-27) Olivia Watson: I love seeing what I can get at multiple libraries and their apps all at once as well as saving money!
• (2023-12-26) Mike T: Extremely useful tool to build up the reading habit and using our libraries.

• (2023-04-23, v:2023.321.1) Jamie A nerd: Extension seems to be blocking Chrome page loads - in general
  I have used your extension - which I LOVE! - for a long time in another profile. Recently installed in my new personal Google Account / Chrome Profile and it seems to a problem. I was experiencing a complete dead-zone, sporadically, when I used Google Search or loaded commonly used URLs... nothing would happen but a spinning cursor. I did troubleshooting by turning off all of my Chrome Extensions, and I fear this Library Extension may be the problem. :( Things worked again when it was disabled. I'm going to change the settings to only be enabled with https://www.amazon.com/ - to see if that helps, but wanted you to know. BTW - I keep a very clean, up to date system, in all respects, and this issue just resurfaced after a Windows Update-required restart: Windows 11 Chrome Version 112.0.5615.138 (Official Build) (64-bit)
• (2023-03-21, v:2023.321.1) Holly Springer: Extension
  Although I have the Library extension which I love, and use with the Amazon site. I find that each time I wish to search for a book at one of my listed libraries, I need to reinstall the extension. Why does it not keep open? I thought it would automatically show the book availability when I open the page and click on the title.

  I was wondering if Overdrive is going to be updated on the site. In the Chicagoland area, Overdrive is being sunsetted and it is now Libby. I was curious if this change was going to be reflected on the library extension? Thanks!
• (2023-01-05, v:2023.102.1) Lizabeth Kashinsky: not working

  I see that you support Erie County Library, but can you please add the rest of the Erie County libraries? Specifically my library, the Corry Public Library? We use a shared catalog and when I saw Erie I thought you would have all the branches and independent county affiliates included.
