Did you know that the Toronto Public Library is the largest in North Americ in terms of circulation, with 19 million circulated items? (Source: Wikipedia) *Shiver.* What luck!

I’m going on another reading spree, this time on relationship
marketing.
At some point in time, I will be annoyed enough to write a non-(mouse
and pageload)-intensive way to say “Request all selected books and
have them delivered to my nearest branch.”
Argh. Little inefficiencies like that annoy me. That is so getting
hacked. Probably during CASCON, even.

Having discovered the joys of the online book request system, I raided
the library for 22 books on various topics including networking.
Mwahahaha! I could barely restrain my glee. Kid in a candy store,
really…
Props to W- Young for helping me get all
those books to Graduate House! =) He’s awesome.

Thanks to Simon Ditner for this totally cool bookmarklet!
Did Dan mention the bookmarklet creator compatible with the TPL? This will suck up ISBN numbers on a page (i.e. Amazon), and search the TPL catalog:
