This plugin allows you to display the books in your Google Books Library
With this plugin you can add show off your books from any of the shelves on your Google Books Library. It uses the Google Boooks API to show your Reading Now, Favorites, Have Read, To Read, or your custom shelves. You can also choose the maximum number of books that you want to display.
In order to find your idNumber, visit books.google.com and click "My library". Then look in the address bar and it should look something like this:
http://books.google.com/books?uid=113720634485746776434
Everything after uid= is your idNumber.
To find the shelfNumber for a particular shelf, click on the name of the shelf. The address should look something like this:
http://books.google.com/books?as_coll=3&num=10&uid=113720634485746776434&source=gbs_slider_cls_metadata_3_mylibrary_title
The number after as_col= is your shelfNumber. Note that you have to make sure that you make the shelf public for this to work. To do this, click on the settings button (looks like a gear), click "Edit properties", and next to visibility, click "Make public" if it isn't already public.
