One domain, however, was forgotten: books.google.bt. Searching in Google will often return results that eventually lead the user into books.google.bt, but instead of landing on a book page, you will get a drawing of a broken robot with a "503. That's an error." message.
The only workaround that I found is to go to the address bar, replace the ".bt" with ".com", and hit enter. This will load the initial page, but scrolling to see more book pages does not work. The browser keeps showing the "Loading..." message.
The bottom line: Users in Bhutan cannot currently use Google Books.
Update (23/5/2013): Two weeks after posting this, functionality has been restored.

Book pages are stuck at "Loading..." |
