    Very cool.

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

    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.

    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.
