Two extremes I know about are: 1. Koha (http://www.koha.org/) - A full featured library system used by academic libraries in the world. - I don't know about Hebrew, but it has been localized to several languages so it should be possible. - Looks as an overkill for your purpose, but maybe it can be deployed partially. 2. Tellico (http://www.periapsis.org/tellico/) - A personal collection manager for KDE (I use it for my books). - Support Hebrew although the interface hasn't been translated yet (you can do it easily). - Can search Amazon and load meta-info from there -- save time! - Not designed to track loans etc :-( Seems like you need something in the middle. Last time I played with Koha was about 3-4 years ago. It looks like a live project so you may want to test it now (please report conclusions).
