- (2025-07-09) One of my favorite extensions! Makes things super easy and has saved me countless dollars that I would have spent on books.
- (2025-06-27) great to look for book in hoopla/ local libraries ...etc
- (2025-06-16) This extension is GENIUS! SO helpful for library users. The dev is super responsive. Couldn't recommend this more highly.
- (2025-05-23) GET THIS BOOK IF YOU USE YOUR LIBRARY'S EBOOK SYSTEMS!!! This extension makes it so easy to access free books!!!!! It works really well. I'd love to see it have an option for the books available on spotify premium if possible.
- (2025-05-19) This extension is indispensable if you have access to multiple libraries. I'm fortunate to have a few libraries to access and can tell in seconds which ones have the book I want, what format they carry it in and how long the wait list is. During one update I briefly lost access to the extension and realized how valuable it is to me.
- (2025-05-17) My most used extension by far. I still use Audible on occasion, but this extension is usually my first look. I love the efficiency .
- (2025-04-18) Best app to see where your next read is available for my library or subscription services. Takes you directly to borrow/check out/buy the book. Saves so much time searching all my apps to find where to read the book from.
- (2025-04-16) This is a convenient and valuable extension! I can't buy all the books I desire--my house would be filled. Libraries serve such an important service.
- (2025-04-16) Ivan Bucher: Always a helpful team behind the scenes willing to help resolve any errors as time goes on. Super helpful way to save money
- (2025-04-02) Between this Library Extension and the Libby app I am saving so much money by not having to buy books. Don't get me wrong, I love books but not all of them a home on my bookshelf. My local library recently updated their catalog. I emailed support and within 1 day the extension was update with the new information. Talk about service! A+ / 5 stars!
- (2025-03-31) Love that I'm able to see what books are available at my library regardless of what website I'm browsing on!
- (2025-03-28) Love this extension! Helpful and saves money!
- (2025-03-20) Marilyn Dash: FIVE YEARS of using this app and i still love it! Just what I needed! It works - just as advertised. When I am looking at a book I'm interested in reading, it pops up and tells me... Don't buy that.. it's available at your local library! That helps when you are living on a budget but love to read. I just chatted with their Support team and had a library I belong to added without delay. It took maybe 10 minutes! What incredible support they provide. Thank you!
- (2025-03-14) As a book lover, one of my favorite money saving hacks. I recommend it to everyone! And I have a great local library, so if they don't have the book I'm interested in, oftentimes they will just order it.
- (2025-03-11) Six years on and I'm still using this extension every day. I love that I can customize it to display the physical collection for my local library, and the digital only collections for the libraries I'm a member of outside of my usual errands.
- (2025-03-10) I had been using this extension on Chrome happily for years. Then my local library adopted a new catalog system & the extension began erroring out. I emailed support & the developer, Andrew, updated the library configuration & got back to me within hours. You can't ask for better than that. Thanks, Andrew!
- (2025-03-07) Love this extension for helping me support our public libraries!
- (2025-03-05) I love the Library Extension! It shows me where to look for the audiobooks I am interested in, often better and easier than the Libby app. And if I've ever had a problem, the developers are right on it.
- (2025-03-02) I use this regularly. It is super helpful with knowing if my library has books.
- (2025-03-01) Excellent extension! I love being able to see which of my libraries has a book available when I'm on Goodreads, Amazon, or other book sites. It helps me cut down on impulse purchases.
- (2025-02-22) Looking foreward to checking out the old library!
- (2025-02-21) Extremely useful extension and very great support from developer.
- (2025-02-21) Such a great extension. My only gripe is why is it not open source? Their privacy policy makes it look like they aren't making anything from your data, so I find it odd. Especially since that would make it easier to create a port usable on iOS devices, which their FAQ makes clear they can't support
- (2025-02-17) Incredibly helpful. Easy to use, and unobtrusive until you find yourself considering buying a book... at which point, there it is, subtly reminding you that you don't have to! One of the best extensions I've ever used.
- (2025-02-12) Extremely helpful, and does not clunk up my browser at all. very convenient
- (2025-02-11) Great extension! I recommend this constantly. (Plus their Customer Service is extremely responsive.)
- (2025-02-09) This app has saved me quite a bit of time and money, making it a breeze to figure out if any of our nearby libraries or Hoopla have a specific book we want/need, but don't necessarily want to keep.
- (2025-02-07) Extremely useful!
- (2025-02-03) This is a great extension! So helpful.
- (2025-01-29) Terrific.
- (2025-01-25) So helpful! Thank you.
- (2025-01-24) Alexander Tang: amazing. used for years and love it
- (2025-01-20) Amazing extension! It lets me know whether a book I’m looking for is available at local libraries. This has saved me A LOT of money. The developer is extremely responsive and added a library system not previously listed in under 2 days.
- (2025-01-15) I've used this extension for several years and find it extremely convenient when investigating a "new-to-me" book and deciding whether I want to make the investment to purchase and add the book to my own collection or not. Fortunately I have three outstanding public libraries within five miles of my house, so taking a quick trip to whichever might have the book I'm looking for and skimming through it for a few pages then allows me to essentially try before I buy. I think the best part of this extension is it connects with all types of readers. Whether you enjoy maintaining your own personal library of whatever size in your house, read regularly but only want to keep certain books for your shelves, or don't necessarily have the space or resources to keep your own library so you only borrow books from your local public library, this has got you covered! Give it a try and I'm sure you will find it a great resource in your continued reading adventures for many years to come. Enjoy!
- (2025-01-14) Perfect extension lets me know if the book is in the library and how long a wait it might be before I can get it from there. If unhappy with the wait time I can choose to buy it or not. The fact it does this for multiple libraries is really the awesome part.
- (2025-01-12) The extension is magical and seamless and frictionless. I had a small hiccup and tech support was on it right away. Thanks for doing this work for us!
- (2025-01-11) Super useful! Makes me use my local library and save money from ama*on
- (2025-01-08) I love how this automatically surfaces what books are available locally! The fact that it separates audio vs print books is so helpful!
- (2024-12-31) This is the extension I've been hoping to find for years. Look at a book on Amazon or Goodreads, and the extension tells you if it's available from your library, Hoopla, or Libby. Then links you to the page to get it! Saves so much time.
- (2024-12-27) omg was working on coding something likes this, very slowly cause I'm not good, when I came across this. absolutely awesome
- (2024-12-14) So easy to use and super helpful! They even added my small local library to the list when requested. I will use this all the time! Thank you!!!
- (2024-12-13) I am a huge fan of the public library system in the US. I'm surprised that more people don't take advantage of this wonderful institution. When looking for a particular book, I find it very helpful to know if it is something I can check out for free, or if buying a copy through kindle is the best option!
- (2024-12-03) Love it!
- (2024-12-01) Excellent app. Best way to access your library, short of going there.
- (2024-11-28) Such a great idea. Thank you!
- (2024-11-26) I love this extension, and it's so easy to use. Thank you!
- (2024-11-21) i read so many books and own several lined shelves in my own home
- (2024-11-19) Very useful. You can check for a title on Amazon and are notified if your local library has it.
- (2024-11-14) Very wonderful and helpful extension. Plus the dev(s) are really responsive and kind! Highly recommend this extension to save some money on books (though I still end up buying books anyway).
- (2024-11-13) I use this to search 2 libraries and hoopla. One of the libraries wasn't searching properly, and I emailed support. Developer Andrew Abrahamowicz got back with me promptly about a fix. (The first fix didn't quite resolve it but with more back-and-forth it's working now.)
