Terms of use

Effective date: July 1, 2025  ·  Last updated: July 2025

By downloading or using ShelfBee ("the app" or "the extension"), you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.

What ShelfBee does

ShelfBee is a Safari Web Extension that checks library availability for books on supported websites. It is intended for personal, non-commercial use. Library availability data is sourced from OverDrive/Libby and may not always be current or accurate.

What you can do

What you can't do

Library relationships

ShelfBee is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or partnered with OverDrive, Libby, Amazon, Goodreads, or any public library system. Your relationship with your library — including borrowing, holds, and account access — is governed entirely by your library's own policies.

Availability and accuracy

We make no guarantee that the app will be available at all times or that library availability information will be accurate. Library catalogs update independently and there may be a delay between actual availability and what ShelfBee shows.

Disclaimer of warranties

ShelfBee is provided "as is," without warranty of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the app will be error-free or uninterrupted.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, ShelfBee and its developer shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the app.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the app after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the new terms. We'll update the effective date above when we do.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state of Colorado, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
