Is your feature request related to a problem/an inconvenience? Please describe.
I'm a lover of books and personal privacy. But there's one thing that makes me a little bit sad when it comes to leaving the rest of the internet behind, and that's incompatibility with some favorite integrations. One of my favorite integrations is Library Extension. It works by stripping the titles and authors from a handful of supported book review sites like Goodreads, and passes them through a user-defined search filter to see if the book is available at their local library.

It's locally hosted, enormously helpful, and incentivizes using a public resource rather than contributing to consumerism. It's one of my favorite web extensions. The problem is, it's closed-source. I, as an end-user, can't really approach the devs and ask them to make Library Extension compatible with fediverse instances. But, maybe you guys could come to an arrangement.

Describe the solution/feature you'd like
If at all possible, I would like to see some way to check if a book is available at the user's local library. If that's through integration with this extension, via collaborating with the author of Library Extension? Fantastic! If that becomes a project one of the maintainers of this project takes on? I would love to see it work, and I'd be thrilled to use it.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I'm still learning Javascript. If I had the ability to modify the extension by myself, I would. https://www.libraryextension.com/ It's surprisingly complicated.

Additional context
I just wanted to thank you guys for the work you do.

Hello sagewilde,
Thank you for the feature request, I just wanted to keep you updated on what is happening. I used the contact form on https://www.libraryextension.com/contact-us around a month ago about this, but I haven't received a response. I'll wait a bit more and see where to go from there.
