We needed a way to flexibly and conveniently see if we have an ebook for a given monograph.
This application allows a lookup to be done on:
- title
- title and author
- callnumber
...and returns either brief results with just the found title and author and url, or fuller results that also display publication-date and language.
Example urls (access may be limited in the future):
