I built a plugin called OpenBook which links to Open Library, which in turn links to WorldCat. I've had inquiries about direct WorldCat integration, but I also like Jessamyn's idea above. Maybe we can collaborate? Hi, I see your post is from 2007, but I just found it. I built a plugin called OpenBook which links to Open Library, which in turn links to WorldCat.

WorldCat made some sort of an effort to be inclusive librarywise even at the expense of their bottom line or 2) more libraries used OPACs that would allow/support persistent URLs so that this little thingdoo would link right to books in your own library, or a configurable library really. WorldCat is useless for me in Vermont, though this would be awesome for someone in a place with more WorldCat penetration. It would be super great if either 1.
