online book catalog
last update: 15th Feb 2008
This project is no longer maintained. You can try your luck with online solutions like LibraryThing or lib.rario.us.
Canoe is an online book cataloging software. It differs from library in a way it handles users. In Canoe everyone is equal and is able to either share or borrow books. System helps to store and browse books data. It also automates borrowing process so you can find the book and make an arrangement with the owner with only few clicks. It is fast and robust, designed to be easily extended and modified. Written entirely in Python.
Main Canoe page, with recently added books, login and search boxes and navigation links.
Book details page.
Preferences page for an admin user, containing both account-specific and site-specific forms.
To use canoe you need Python >= 2.3 and SQLite2 paired with python module pysqlite 1.0.
