the art of getting lost
An iOS Shortcut for your library’s Overdrive/Libby search
Some public libraries now offer digital books via a service called Overdrive/Libby. Often when I am reading an article, I want to search for the name of the book or author to see if there is anything in the Overdrive collection related to the text. I made an iOS shortcut that lets me search for a book from a highlighted text on a web page.
Select the text that you want to search 
Select Share to open the Share menu. Select the shortcut to run. 
The Shortcut searches for the selected text on Overdrive search engine. 
If the book is available, then you can borrow it.
The shortcut does not store any data from the resulting website. It just runs a search using the public search URL from your library. I have a mailed Overdrive to see if they can enable call to their app, so that search and borrowing can be more fluid.
On the topic of Overdrive, I got a new Kobo.
I like e-Ink readers. I have used a couple of Kindles over the years. Kindle is economical for me as I buy e-books from the Indian Kindle store, which has perhaps the cheapest ebooks anywhere. But Kindle does not work with Overdrive based library digital book systems (outside of the US). Hence, Kobo. Another positive is the integration with Pocket, a read-later app.
