Multiple collections

Book Collector allows multiple sub-collections within one database file. The collections will appear as little tabs at the bottom (e.g. like in Excel), so that you can easily switch between them.

Create and manage collections

Go to menu File > Manage Collections to create a new collection, rename existing collections, remove a collection or change their order (drag and drop).

Merging existing database files

You can merge existing database files into one single database with multiple collections.

Use File > Import from > Other Database to import other database files into one master database, as separate collections. You will get a popup asking you if you wish to import the database as a separate collection.

Moving book(s) to other collections

You can freely move one or multiple books between collections in your database file.

1. Right click on a book (or multiple) and select Move to other collection.
2. Select the collection you wish to move it/them in.

The option to move to other collection only appears if you have multiple collections (so use File > Manage Collections to create an extra collection first).
