You don't need complex infrastructure, high-level coding expertise, or even permission – anyone can create a bookmarklet in their own web browser containing simple javascript code that quickly visits webpages or manipulates information on them. This presentation will show how users can create their own bookmarklets. I’ll look at some common library tasks I’ve faced and show the simple javascript I’ve used to carry them out with the click of a button. The code discussed will be available for download and I’ll talk through how it works so users can easily tweak it to fit their own day-to-day needs.22en© The Authorjavascriptproblem solvinglibrary and information scienceConference Contribution - unpublishedANZSRC::080706 LibrarianshipANZSRC::0803 Computer SoftwareANZSRC::080308 Programming Languageshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Attribution
