personal library software

[lilfluff]

I know some of you out there are keeping track of your books on your computers. May I ask what software you're using? I have a few hundred several hundred maybe a few thousand books that really need to get inventoried. I've spotted a few duplicates and in the last two months ended up buying at least one duplicate for certain and have another that may or may not be a duplicate.

Maybe if I can get them organized I can even in the process divert a few into a give-away or sell pile.

Gone ahead and started with a program called Alexandria and to keep things contained I'm starting with just the manga and similarly sized american trade collections... in a short time I already have 176 books listed. Yeah, I think my whole personal library must be in the few thousands rather than merely several hundreds.

Don't know if I'll stick with Alexandria though. It's handy at filling in the records on the basis of just the ISBN number, but seems a little limited in what it will do with the records once it has them. It will at least export files that I can use other tools on.

Hi! I work for a small organization that's looking to get some kind of library software to catalog their books. I've been searching for library stuff online, and Google brought me here. The program you're using sounds decent ... do you have a link to its website? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
