To Do (In No Particular Order)

New Fields

See Instructions for adding new fields.

  • Language (112)
  • Date Loaned (115)
  • Date to Return (148)
  • Date Purchased (113)
  • Multi Series (and Maxi/Meta) (105, 101). Allowing multiple series per book seems the best solution.
  • Series name & no for anthologies (106)

Some of these really foreshadowed improved features eg. Loan and return stuff could be enhanced and # of copies presupposes a solution to duplicate management.

But I wonder if there is any value in considering allowing the user to add fields at runtime (see below).

Features

  • Expanded 'Loan' system (integration with mail, calendar, auto-sending reminders etc)
  • Multiple Authors and Author Aliases (8, 7)
  • Multiple Series per book (eg. Ringworld should be part of the Ringworld series as well as the Known Space series).
  • Bulk operations (bulk assign bookshelf, bulk change author); search and replace (126, 90)
  • Duplicate books (104, Discussion Page)
  • Book details view as a way of browsing. (Discussion Page)
  • Bulk Import : scan or ISBN (89)
  • LCCN Import (67)
  • ASIN import (this is Amazon-specific and they have differenT ASINs across amazon sites. Seems dubious).(165
  • Clear DB (147)
  • Search local DB (133)
  • Custom fields displayed in catalogue (97, 4, Discussion Page)
  • Cover edit/crop (75)
  • Clean up series name display (158)

UI/Theme Updates

  • as the catalogue grows the 'Browse by Author' is going to become too big (4)
  • Hiding/showing covers in list vs. details would be a good option (4)

Integration

  • Library Thing (Notes) (116)
  • Google Books (149)
  • Google Docs (38)
  • GoodReads (156)
  • Email (37)

More Research Needed

  • Get Series numbers (9)
  • Fill in series (24)
  • CD and DVD support (68)
  • Problems with 'next' button and auto-complete fields (41)
