Book Librarian Plus is a professional cataloging tool that allows both libraries and individuals to keep their book collections perfectly organized. Using the Z39.50 standard protocol, it connects to more than 50 reputed libraries so that you can download professionally cataloged records to add to your collection. Besides, it contains all the elements needed to keep track of your lending activities.

This cataloging tool is simple and flexible enough to be useful to all types of institutions and individual users. The interface can be reasonably customized, so that it may look as complicated or as simple as you need. Professional users will be happy to make use of its Z39.50 support, which will let you connect to a number of US universities and libraries – including the Library of Congress – to take advantage of their records. The search and retrieval interface is easy to use, and the information provided will be shown following the strictest MARC cataloging tags. For those who are not librarians by profession and know nothing about MARC records and tags, the program will also let you browse other more friendly catalogs – namely, those of Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Downloading is not allowed here, but you can always cut and paste sensitive data (such as the ISBN number, the author or the complete title of the book) to help you retrieve the remaining information from more professional sources. more

We are a non-profit organization and have a small library and running Book Librarian Plus Version 4.02 on Windows XP.

We are looking into upgrading the computer to Windows 10 or 11 and wanted to know what version of Book Librarian Plus would be compatible and if there is an option to migrate the current records into the new version.

Your advice and assistance is appreciated.

Thank you
