Add a library finder to your website

Library finder instructions

A widget is a small component that can be placed on any website. This widget helps users find their nearest public library. The data is provided by the LibraryOn API.

You can either embed the widget as it comes, or customise the width, height, and primary/secondary colours. Once you are done with customisations, refresh and copy the code at the bottom of the page, to paste into your website's HTML.

If you have any problems, or would like to give feedback, please get in touch.
