I found a great thing:
http://weblog.infoworld.com/udell/stories/2002/12/11/librarylookup.html
It looks complicated to do, but it isn't. I'm no techy and I got it sorted out easy-peasy.
What it is, is a little thingy that sits on your Links toolbar in your brower. When you are looking at books on sites like Amazon, you can see if your local library has the book by just clicking the little thingy - it finds an ISBN on the page and looks it up with your library's online database (if it has one - both of mine do!)
It really is great
do check it out
