This extension is great and saves me time trying to find books available at my library. Further functionality I would like to see added would be consolidating books with multiple editions into one "Title" and scanning other lists on my Goodreads account. Currently if a book as multiple editions, every single edition is shown so if I have a list of 75 books Library Scan will show me a list of over 500 editions of those 75 books. Being able to have multiple "Tabs" for each list within Goodreads would be great as well because I sort my "To Read" list into multiple lists. All that aside this extension fits the basic function it was designed for and saves me time. Highly recommend.
