Default Req: Download books from Openlibrary.org (part of archive.org), like w/Google Books?

There's a new online library feature at archive.org (the Internet Archive / Wayback Machine) called openlibrary.org. It works very similarly to Google Books -- a web interface loads .jpgs of each page that go into your browser cache. Would it be possible to add the ability to download these .jpgs, the way you've done with Google Books?

Here's some info about how the site works that I gleaned:

There are several sizes of jpgs, depending on how much you zoom in, like with Google Books.

For books under copyright, you "borrow" the book for 2 weeks. Nobody else can borrow it during this time, and it expires after 2 weeks. You can use the web interface or else (this wouldn't be the concern of jdownloader) download the book in .pdf or .pub form with DRM restrictions and view in Adobe Digital Editions. Examples: **External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

For books in the public domain, you can read them freely without any restrictions, using the same web interface. Example: **External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

There are about 2,500,000 public domain books and 10,000 copyrighted books that can be viewed online either in the web interface or in secured .pdf//pub. For all other books, the website tells you what libraries near you have a physical copy.

(These are the entire books, unlike the excerpts you normally get with Google Books.)

Thanks...

So you have to borrow them first and then eventually download them?!
I suppose, an account is needed for that.
Please send me all the needed info via PM so I can check this out...
Note that I'm not there the next week...

Declined as its working without any implementation on our side.
Open the link to a book, e.g. openlibrary.org/works/OL15400523W/Treasure_Island
-->Download PDF
-->Just copy the downloadlink:
archive.org/download/cu31924005605146/cu31924005605146.pdf
-->Add to JD --> Works fine!
