Hi all,

 

I was looking up a book the other day on Google when I noticed a section
called "Borrow" and it showed two local library services where I could
borrow the book.

 

I did a bit more Googling today and noticed this:
https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/structured-data/book

 

It looks like individual libraries would need to register their interest
first, but after that the system would need to serve a feed file that Google
would regularly harvest. 

 

Does anyone have a Koha library where they're currently doing this? It could
make for an interesting Koha plugin.
