I have tried it, and it won''t recognise the USB camera. I was really
asking if anyone had got a non-Apple camera to work with this program.

Bookpedia can sort on any column, and even does secondary sorting (by
one column, and inside that by another column)

Definitely has a column forDewey, and I assume that LCCN option stands
for the Library of Congress Catalog Number.

They aren't in the default setting of columns, but can be included if
one wishes.

I would give up on Notes (that may change when the SDK finally appears).

OK, take your list of books. Generate a totally self contained HTML
file. Then (magic secret) convert it to a DATA URL (there are some Perl
scripts out there that will do that). The Safari browser in the iPhone
can handle really large URL data. Stick the Data URL in your Mac Safari
bookmarks, and sync to your iPhone. Result, one stand alone list of all
your books, working really nicely in your iPhone Safari.

It seems like a massive oversight that there is no way to get notes onto
the iPhone. Well, the SDK is due out any <strike>day</strike> week now.

That should be easy. Books.app does have an HTML export. I'll check that
it doesn't put too much junk in. Otherwise, I can use the CSV export and
script simple HTML from that.

I must admit, I never would have thought of that. That is a magic secret.
I'm a long way getting enough books recorded for this to be needed for my
book library, but I will will experiment with shopping lists.
