I have used it several times too. I read a lot of series (mostly fantasy and sf) and sometimes I need to refresh my memory about a character or a place first mentioned in an earlier book. It would not be particularly useful when reading about characters or places with contemporary names (it's pretty pointless to search the entire library for John or Will or London or Paris
), but it works well with fantasy names, and sometimes with historical fiction too.
