This shortcut scrapes University of Chicago Press’s website and retrieves the title, author, publication year and cover image for their selected free ebook of the month then displays a notification. Clicking on the notification will trigger an alert asking if you want to download the book — selecting OK will open the relevant webpage so you can enter your email (they’ll send you a link for the file). Perfect for running automatically at the start of each month (I run it on the 4th because they don’t always update it on the 1st).
