Cataloging Home or Special Collections
There are a lot of useful apps for avid readers. Card catalogs still work for analog library use. But I had been looking for an online library catalog suitable for a home library or for cataloging special collections when I found the Handy LIbrary App. It is a newer app but it works well for this purpose. In using Handy Library I created bookshelves for libraries I frequently access so I can keep track of books I own as well as books I have access to from other organizations. It can also be used to keep track of books that you lend or give to others if you are a person who loves to introduce others to reading. There is also a new and promising ILS system for small libraries created by Insignia Software. I had the chance to see it not too long ago at a library conference and was impressed.
