I find Library Extension very helpful when looking for book information. The extension is quick and accurate. When I experienced a small problem recently, the support I received was the fastest and most useful I've ever received for any agency/app.

Great extension, helps to me find books already in my local library. I can see what available from either Amazon or Good Reads. It's also helped me to find books I mighjt have missed at Hoopla.

Great addin! I use with goodreads to find books in my local libraries and hoopla. Use it on Win10 and Win11. Note: Edge addins don't work in the Android Edge app... but does in Android Kiwi app.
