During 2006 Google also added a Library Catalog Search feature to Google Book
Search. This feature will help searchers find books in libraries around the world.
According to the Google Blog, "Queries on Google Book Search will automatically
include results from library catalogs when appropriate. Each result includes a 'Find
Libraries' link to help readers find libraries that hold the book-ideally a library
nearby, or if need be, a library far away...we have worked with more than 15 library
union catalogs that have information about libraries from more than 30 countries, as
well as with our colleagues working on Google Scholar (which includes a similar
feature just for scholarly books)."!"
Google Books advanced search has an option to limit a search to library catalogs, so
if you know the book and want to see where it is available, this search makes it easy
to find a library. Keep in mind that at present Google Books and WorldCat are
searching a limited number of libraries and catalogs.
