Google Launches New Tool for Google Book Search Partner Program from the Book Standard reports that Google is launching a new tool for Google Book Search partners. The new tool appears to be like Google’s Custom Search Engine, but specifically designed around Google Book Search.

Partners will be able to place code a search box on their site that will enable users to search for books. The search results will be returned within your site, with your logo and your name. The Book Standard explains that 20 percent of the book will be searchable at one time. In addition, features such as print, save and copy functions will be disabled for the digitized images. However, the results will include a “Buy This Book” button that links directly to the publisher’s page.
