What is LibX?

LibX is a browser extension that brings library resources to your web browser.  Available for Firefox 3 (Mac & Windows) and Internet Explorer 7 (Windows).  LibX lets you:

  • Search the library catalog, EKU electronic journals, WorldCat.org, and EKU Subject Guides from a toolbar in your browser;
  • Reload any page through the library's proxy server;
  • Highlight text and search the library catalog, WorldCat, or Google Scholar for that text.

Download LibX below.
