A bunch of us on a discussion list were talking about various books and joking about how much money we spend on Amazon. In the last year I’ve developed the habit of only buying books that I think I will want to read or reference multiple times. For everything else, I try to use the library (if the book is available). Anyhoo, Dori Smith pointed me to this rocking LibraryLookup bookmarklet, which allows you to look up the current book you’re viewing on Amazon at your local library. This is exactly what I needed. Thanks Dori!
Update: BTW, if you happen to live in Boulder, here’s the bookmarklet for the Boulder Public Library. Just drag it to your toolbar, or right click and choose “Add to Favorites…”:
