There was a great bit of free software that I had downloaded a bunch of years ago, LibraryDB, which allowed you to set up your own software. If memory serves, you could hook up a laser scanner and scan the barcode, which would make things pretty easy for you, but I can't seem to find the software online anymore. But to be honest, I've always found cataloging and data entry to be a lot of fun, and there's something meditative about entering a book's title, date, author, ISBN, etc. into a system. I found that it helped me figure out what I have and think about why I'm keeping some books. It also led to some neat discoveries about certain books. I found a couple that had been signed that I'd never realized had been signed!
