LibGuide Cover art without Amazon links!

Did y'all notice that here's a new buttons in the "Books from the Catalog" entry screen? Instead of just Amazon you can now get cover art from Syndetics. Which means no link to take people off to Amazonland!

I only noticed it today, but maybe it's not news. Has anyone else seen this nifty thing?
