I would highly recommend getting your feet wet with a real database
system like Postgresql. As soon as you start keeping records of books,
you will find something else suitable to be put into a database system
(companies, contacts, mp3's, etc) and it is easy to keep adding tables
as your needs expand.
PgAccess is good. So is phpPgAdmin, it offers a browser based interface.
Both give you a simple way to build Postgresql databases and once you
see how easy it is to find, import and export your data, you will be
sold on using a database.
Finally, if you are going to start using databases, you may as well use
Postgresql because it is a database you can grow into.
My $.02,
Brian

Hi all,
I've got a ton of books, and I was thinking about cataloging them in
some
sort of database. What would be something I could use for that? I hate
to go and try to learn postgresql or something, as that looks pretty
daunting. Is there a simple database out there that would be good for
this?
thanks!
Jeff
