Browser Extensions
Save books to your library and compare market context while browsing partner sites.
Browser extensions are planned to help collectors save books, identify editions, and compare market context while browsing partner sites. They are not yet available for general download from Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge stores.
This page describes the intended experience, privacy principles, and how to stay informed. Nothing here is an installable release or store listing.
1. Current availability
There is no production browser extension to install today. Store badges, sideload packages, and automatic updates are not offered on this page.
Until a public release, continue using the website search, ISBN lookup, and Add books tools inside 2manybooks.
What you can do now
- Search the catalog from the site header.
- Add books from My library by title, author, or ISBN.
- Open book pages for edition details and market context.
- Contact Get in Touch if you want early-access notes for a future release.
2. Planned workflows
The extension roadmap focuses on reducing friction between browsing elsewhere and keeping a clean personal library.
Intended capabilities
- Save a book to your 2manybooks library from a partner product page.
- Identify likely editions using title, author, and ISBN signals.
- Surface catalog and market context without replacing the merchant checkout.
- Return you to 2manybooks when you need full copy notes, shelves, or listings.
3. Permissions and privacy
Any future extension will request only the permissions needed for the workflows above. Broad reading of unrelated browsing history is not a product goal.
Account actions will require you to be signed in. Local and synced data practices will follow the Privacy Policy and store disclosure requirements.
Design principles
- Prefer explicit save actions over silent collection.
- Show clear status when a match is uncertain.
- Avoid injecting checkout or payment flows on third-party sites.
- Provide an uninstall path that removes extension-stored preferences.
4. Compatibility targets
Initial releases are expected to target Chromium-based browsers first, with additional browsers considered after the core save-and-identify loop is stable.
Partner-site coverage will expand gradually. Unsupported pages should fail gracefully rather than inventing a match.
5. Feedback and updates
If browser-based cataloging is important to your workflow, tell us which sites and actions matter most. Product feedback helps prioritize the first supported surfaces.
Release notes and install links will appear here when a public version is ready. Until then, Documentation remains the guide for website cataloging.
Extensions are not available for download yet. Use the website tools today, or read Resources for more guides.
