Template:Library resources box

Template documentation view] [edit] [history] [purge]

The {{Library resources box}} template provides a sidebar box of external links to resources in the user's preferred library about or by the topic of an article. The links go out to an external program ("FTL", currently hosted at the Online Books Page server at the University of Pennsylvania Libraries) that formulates an appropriate search request for a selected library's catalog or other discovery application. Users can register their preferred library with FTL for a one-click transition from Wikipedia to their library's relevant resources. Other links in this box allow the user to choose a different library, or (optionally) to see what books they can freely read online.
