If library databases don't involve anything complicated which I am
unaware of, you might try throwing together a quick Lotus Notes
database. 

Although come to think of it if you need bar code scanning I don't know
if you could do it in notes. If you have any Client/Server programmers
up for a quick project they could throw something together with VB or
Delphi, and the database of your choice (oracle, MS SQLserver, etc).
Would be quite simple to write, and then they could just use whatever
bar code reader libraries come with the bar code reader.
