For teachers, librarians and bloggers
Free book widgets for your website
Add a quote of the day or a card for your favourite classic to a class page, library site or blog. Copy the code and paste it into an HTML or embed block of your page. Free, with no sign-up and no ads.

Code ready for Pride and Prejudice
How to use the widgets
- Paste the code where the widget should appear: in the HTML of your page, or in an HTML or embed block (WordPress Custom HTML, Squarespace Code, Wix Embed, Google Sites Embed). Some school platforms and free plans do not allow frames; then use the plain link from the code on its own.
- The widgets are free for every site, also in class and on school pages. Nothing is added to your page except the frame: no script of ours, no ads and no analytics.
- The code ends with a plain link to us. You may keep it, change its words or remove it; the widget works either way.
- Change the width freely; the cards fit any space from 280 pixels up. The heights in the code fit every width; raise them if your page shows a scroll bar.
Questions about the widgets
Are the widgets free?
Yes. Both widgets are free for every website, blog and school page, with no sign-up and no limit.
Does the widget add ads or analytics to my page?
No. The widget is a plain frame with no ads, no analytics and no third-party script. Your page loads only the small card from our site.
How often does the quote change?
Every day. The quote of the day takes one line a day from the classic stories and poems on our site, with the work and its author.
How do I choose the book for the book card?
Type part of its title or its author's name in the picker above the preview and choose it from the list. The preview and the code change at once.
Will the widget slow down my page?
No. The frame loads after your page, holds a small card and loads lazily, so it waits until a reader scrolls near it.
