Book Catalogue Software

Status: Looks Interesting.

Readerware appears to be an interesting product. From what I see you can use the software not only as a database of your books, but help you find where the book should be (even if they are packed in a box as long as the box is labelled). It would be nice to search for books I have at home in the same way I can search the library’s collection.

If you love books, are an avid reader, collector, researcher or anyone who needs to maintain a collection of books, then Readerware is a must have product. Readerware is the ultimate book lovers tool, there is no easier way to catalog and maintain your collection. Its unique auto-catalog feature will do the work of building a database for you by scanning the internet. It will find the book, and build a local database with all the relevant information, including cover art. You feed it a list of ISBNs or bar code scans and Readerware does the rest. No data entry required!

And you can keep track of who has borrowed your books to for followup when they forget to return them. Or for those who might want to boast you can even generate HTML of your collection and post it to the web for all to see.

And there is even a Palm OS version of the database reader so you can take your catalogue with you. Ever run across a book at the bookstore and try to remember if you have a book?
