E-Library

Editors' ReviewDownload.com staffAugust 10, 2005This application effectively organizes your book collection, despite some minor flaws. Using a pleasing, intuitive interface, E-Library allows you to easily record detailed information about individual books, authors, publishers, and both online and brick-and-mortar vendors. You can input or import information including book summary, author notes, publisher information, and vendor data. The prepopulated book subjects are a nice touch. We also like the ability to track borrowed titles and the one-click searches of three online booksellers for the title or author, although selecting one of the buttons displayed an error message. Additionally, the search function was hard to find, leaving us to navigate using the quick lists available on the right side of the interface. You can export reports in a number of formats, but we were dissatisfied with the output's design. This application comes with a 20-record trial. Still, bibliophiles will want to check out this attractive, multifeatured collection application.
