Google Books is our effort to make book content more discoverable on the Web. Using the Google Books API, your application can perform full-text searches and retrieve book information, viewability and eBook availability. You can also manage your personal bookshelves.
The Embedded Viewer API lets you embed Google Books previews on your own website and programmatically control these previews.
See how the Google Books APIs are being used by WorldCat, GoodReads, the University of California Libraries, and more.
