Great job!
I want to use this to scan in “checked out books” from the library to have a record of every book I have, well, at least checked out. (Wish I had it from when I first seriously starting using the library. (H.S.
Some libraries offer this-mine does not.
Also I use the Universities library too.
Thanks Google and this is free?! What a great company.

Indeed! Worked wonderfully, I completely forgot Barcode Scanner recognized books vs other products. Thanks for the tip.

You can use the Barcode Scanner app on your android phone to do this – just scan and click on the Book Search button when the barcode has been recognized – jumps to Google Books in your browser – sign-in and volia! Working great for me – easy peasy.

i wish google would have a charge service to have all ebooks on there, so we dont kill more trees or carry 40lbs of books to each class.

Very cool.
And I too want the android app for this. Google products already uses the android barcode scanner, why not books too?

Man, as someone who knows how to comment but yet doesn’t do enough of it, thank you for reminding me how important and interesting it is to comment on a blog, not just read it.
