Upgrade Your View of the Web with Browser Extensions

Abstract
If there are web sites you use frequently, you may be able to improve your (and your patrons') interactions with them using browser extensions; this can often be done without having special access to that web site, and even without admin permissions on your computer. In this session, I'll describe a few types of browser extensions (including custom OpenSearch search boxes and Greasemonkey/Tampermonkey user scripts), and how I have used them with our OPAC and other web sites.
