More Information

Found what you want in Chapters or Amazon? Use our LibraryLookup feature to find it at GVPL.

The Search GVPL link is actually a bookmarklet—a little bit of JavaScript. Once installed as a bookmark it will search GVPL's Catalogue for whatever you've found on Chapters.ca, Amazon.ca—and almost any other online bookstore. The results appear in a new window.

To get started:

Internet Explorer: Right-click and add the link to your Favorites.

Firefox: Drag-and-drop to your Links Toolbar.

Next time you find what you want at on online bookstore, click the bookmarklet to find it at GVPL. Then place a hold or come pick it up!

The bookmarklet works by looking for the item's ISBN in our Catalogue. For best results, choose a hardcover edition from the online bookseller's website. More information about the LibraryLookup bookmarklet is available on the creator's blog.
