(Updated end of 2007 to handle Google Book Search's new link layout and book title position)

The script puts a small yellow box in the corner of your Google Book Search screen. The box includes a book title and a link to the library system's search results. When clicked, the script opens a new tab containing the library's lookup page with the book's location and status. The script also linkifies the library names on this page, to point to the library's street map, hours and phone page.

This GM script acts on 2 completely separate pages. After installing the script, simply goto http://books.google.com, search and arrive at a specific book. Screenshot available here: http://blog.medallia.com/2007/04/google_print_l...

Update: March 6 to update the way I search for ISBN number on the Amazon hyperlink. Google changed the syntax a little, so you need this update for the script to function.
