Can I suggest that you try STAR, a text management system produced by
Quadra Associates, Los Angeles. We use the system here in our
museum to catalogue all of the collections; photographs, archaeology,
social history, books, periodicals, etc, etc. It really can handle
just about everything we throw at it. It is used by a vast number of
museums, libraries, engineering companys,etc, all over the world.
