What is eBookCollector?

eBookCollector

eBookCollector is a super simple and user-friendly software that’s perfect for anyone who wants to keep track of their ebooks. Whether you’re looking to store ebooks you plan to read or ones you’ve already finished, this app helps you create a neat little database. Plus, you can organize your books into categories that make sense for you!

Easy Setup and Portability

This program comes with everything you need to get started right away—no complicated setup needed. You can even carry it around on a thumb drive, allowing you to use it on any computer without a hitch.

User-Friendly Interface

The interface of eBookCollector is really straightforward. It has a category tree, details of each record, and an easy search button. This makes it perfect for beginners who might be new to using software like this.

Keep Your Records Accurate

To make sure everything runs smoothly, just remember to have the correct ISBN for each book. If not, the app might throw up an error saying the value isn’t valid. If you're unsure how it works, check out the “Readme” file for some example ISBNs.

What You Need to Enter

You’ll need to fill in details like the author’s name, title of the book, year published, publisher info, number of volumes and pages, series name if applicable, and editor details. Don’t forget! The record won’t save unless you provide at least a few keywords.

Add Extra Notes if You Want

You can also jot down optional notes about the plot or add a short description along with info like language, ISSN numbers, LCCN numbers, price details, size information, and a URL where people can find the book online. Just keep in mind that cover images only show up when you fetch info from Amazon.

Simplified Search Functionality

When you're ready to save your work, just pick which category fits best for your book and hit the “Save” button! Searching is easy too; just type in part of the ebook's name or author’s name.

Some Limitations to Note

However, there are some things missing from eBookCollector—like options to export your database into formats like CSV or TXT files. You also can't import existing records from your computer or upload custom cover images which could help make finding books easier.

The Bottom Line

In summary, eBookCollector is a basic tool designed specifically for organizing many ebooks into various categories that suit your style. During testing, it was noted that when trying to fetch information using Amazon's feature an error message appeared saying that the record couldn’t be found; but no worries! This doesn’t stop you from adding new books easily.
