It has plugins to grab metadata from many locations, including Amazon, ISBNDB and Goodreads. It's Free and Open Source, with a large development community. You can write your own plugins (in Python). As for the web server: I agree that on THIS computer, I'd only want to access it directly, but I have half a dozen devices that I occasionally access it from. Then I use the web server. | |

I want to store books details (as author, cover, genre, ISBN and description.. etc) in a database system(as mysql) to catalog, view and search them from a web platform(based on PHP for example). | |
