Do you have a book collection you need to organize and catalog? We have the perfect PC-program for you: CATBooks for Windows (shareware)! NEW! We can now offer electronic distribution at a substantially lower price! You find all the details (including how to download) at http://www.prodat.no/fnp/eng/ With CATBooks you can register and look up information about such things as: - author - title - release year - publisher - country of origin - condition - category - type - location - edition - printing - pages - ISBN - purchase price - current value. You can add personal comments for every item. Thirteen special fields enable you to customize your catalog. You can even store a bitmap picture of the book cover. CATBooks includes a loan module that lets you keep track of books on loan, who has borrowed, when they were borrowed, when they are due back and how many times they have been borrowed. CATBooks was recently reviewed by SharewareJunkies: "This excellent little program catalogs your book collection in a relational database. Lots of programs do that, but CATBooks has been particularly well designed and implemented. In addition to a complete bibliographic citation (title, author, publisher, ISBN, publication date, and edition) there are slots for condition, purchase date, book type, previous title, number of pages, and book location, and nine blank slots for user-defined categories. Additionally, there is a well-designed, very informative help file (how many of those have you seen recently?), a good search engine, a memo pad for notes on each entry, and a report generator with value totals for insurance purposes. There is even a window for storing a picture with each record. Performance: * * * * User Friendly: * * * * Cost: * * * * Ease of Installation: * * * * Support: Unknown, little appears necessary."
