I'll second the suggestion of Alexandria for desktop usage but I would |
| 21 |
note that the latest stable version in Portage is extremely old. I |
| 22 |
would suggest using 0.6.3 (the latest upstream release, ~amd64 & ~x86 in |
| 23 |
portage). |

If you want something more involved (like a real Library would use), you |
| 26 |
could look into Koha[1] and/or Evergreen[2] as web apps but |
| 27 |
unfortunately neither is in Portage. |
