ISBN to Google spreadsheet

Enables you to quickly look up metadata associated with an ISBN and append it to a google spreadsheet. The books isbn, title, author, year, and publisher, are stored together as a new row.

note: google spreadsheets have 1000 rows by default. If you do not initially remove these the app will start appending rows at 1001.

This has been build to be used with the iPhone application iScanWeb. This enables users to quickly scan barcodes of books to share the metadata.

To configure the iScanWeb app:

Form Name = isbnform

Form Field = isbn

Start Url = the url pointing to this app

This has been developed to help with cataloguing the library at Frontyard.
