PROSPECTOR TOOLBAR SEARCH EXTENSION FOR MOZILLA FIREFOX

Are you a fan of the Mozilla FireFox browser? If so, you may be interested in a search extension toolbar for your Firefox browser to search Prospector. This tool has been created by Michael Sauer and may be downloaded at http://travelinlibrarian.info/Firefox/. At this Website you will find Firefox Search Plugins for some key Colorado libraries, Open WorldCat and other useful resources. However, if you are a regular Prospector user, its plugin will be especially useful.

Firefox search plugins merely add to your existing services and do not erase others you may have for Google, Yahoo or other search engines. Thus when it is downloaded for your local Firefox browser it will just appear in your search extension pull-down list of search options.

For more information visit Michael Sauer’s Website shown above.
