My organization has a lending library of books, videos, tapes, CDs, and clippings for our volunteers. The numbering system is an in-house one, not Dewey Decimal or Library of Congress, but we are considering updating ours. We have about 140 feet of shelf space, and our collection is small enough that the catalog system consists of four card catalog drawers. A couple of volunteers come in a few hours a week to maintain the library. Can anyone recommend library catalog software that's appropriate for a collection of our size? Most of the library software I've found online are pretty large-scale for us.

Our library uses an Access database.
If you want to contact me directly, I can talk to you about it.
We also have our own numbering system, and have CDs, magazines, and video tapes as well as books and maps. We do not have anything set up for clippings, but that's just because we havent' gotten around to it.
