Hi!
We have nearly 500 books in our company library on various subjects - technical, commercial, legal, QMS, and General Management. These books are presently stacked in cupboards in an unorganized manner. I have been assigned the responsibility to organize them.
The first thing I have done is to create a database for these books (database is an exaggeration :)). In fact, I have listed the names of the books, author names, publishers, and years of publication in an Excel sheet. Now, I need some help in making the 'database' systematic and user-friendly for searching books. I also want to assign numbers to the books.
I need assistance with formatting the database and how the numbering should be done. I hope you all have some ideas and experiences.
