Setting up the Google Books preview section

An item's detail display can include an accordion section that displays previews from Google Books when a preview is available.

You can change the name that appears on the accordion in Language Files (for information about finding and changing text strings, see Managing language files); however, Google limits the titles you can use to just a few. Before your library uses this option, make sure you review the conditions and naming guidelines that Google has set. For more information, see http://code.google.com/apis/books/branding.html#naming. For localized interfaces, Google provides a table of approved translations at http://code.google.com/apis/books/examples/translated-branding-elements.html.

The Google Books viewer includes a toolbar that displays links to Google Books and various book vendors. This toolbar cannot be removed or hidden.

To set up the Google Books preview

  1. From the Admin console choose Profiles.
  2. For the profile you want to work with, choose Edit Profile.
  3. Make sure there is a check in the box of the Display Google Books preview option in the "Enriched Content Options" group (see Fields: Add/Edit/Copy Profile).
