*NEW* Check Our Catalogue Whilst Browsing Amazon!

A new feature that will be very helpful to all borrowers is this little piece of code that you insert as a Link or a Favourite in your internet browser. Basically insert this code as a link and if you are browsing Amazon.co.uk (this will not work with amazon.com because they use different ISBN numbers there) and see a book you like you can click on the link and a window will open and show you if we have the book in our stock!!! It is recommended to use Apple Safari or Google Chrome Web Browsers as they are more secure and user friendly. If you need any help with setting this up, contact Liam at the Library Desk. Copy and Paste this code in as a URL in your Favourites/Links - Call it 'Check WHC Library Catalogue'
javascript:var%20re=/([\/-]|is[bs]n=)(\d{7,9}[\dX])/i;if(re.test(location.href)==true){var%20isbn=RegExp.$2;void(win=window.open('http://ipac.limerickcity.ie'+'/ipac20/ipac.jsp?index=ISBN&term='+isbn,'LibraryLookup','scrollbars=1,resizable=1,location=1,width=575,height=500'))}
