All editing takes place in the “Edit Book” screen, which you can open with the Edit button on the toolbar (blue pencil button) or by choosing Edit Book from the Edit menu.
In this screen, you can find all the book’s properties, on multiple tab pages. Many of the book details will already be filled in, provided by our online database. You can modify it all, to change or to complete the information.
However, the main reason to edit your book entries, is to add information that is specific to you, e.g. when and where you purchased the book, who in your household owns it, your personal notes or ratings, etc…
Example of adding a “Storage Box” to one of your books
- Select the book in your collection.
- Click the blue pencil button in the toolbar (the edit button).
- Bottom left of this tab you should spot the “Storage Box” field for you to enter the location in.
- Click “OK” to save and close the book entry
After editing some fields, click the OK button to save the changes and return to the main screen of Book Collector. If you’re unhappy with the changes, click Cancel.
