ourlib

Automatically receive notifications when a book you are viewing on an online bookstore is available at a library near you, with this handy and unobtrusive extension.

Our libraries are a fundamental part of our society, but how many times have you bought a book online, and not even considered that you may be able to borrow the book for free at a library just around the corner?

If you are a student, bookworm, occasional reader, parent of small children or try-before-you-buy-er and you buy books from one of the three major UK online book retailers, then this extension is for you.

Features:
* See libraries that stock a book (ordered by distance from your current location), get directions through Google maps and visit their website to reserve.
* Unobtrusive toolbar design that only displays on relevant pages.

* Provide a location or allow chrome to provide one for you.
* Read more, spend less.

Permissions:
* Storage – required to store your preferences.
* Location – required to filter libraries by shortest distance to you.

* Various websites - required in order to find and lookup the isbn to find a book in your local library.

* api.ourlib.co.uk - required in order to communicate with our online lookup service.
