# librari.io

> librari.io is a home library management app for serious book collectors and readers. Catalog books by ISBN scan, track reading progress, manage loans, and organize your entire personal library — all in one place.

librari.io is a freemium SaaS product built for people who want real control over their book collection. It is designed as an inventory and cataloging system, not a social reading platform. The focus is on data ownership, flexibility, and depth of organization.

## Key Features

- **ISBN scanning and book search** — Add books instantly by scanning the barcode or searching by title/author. Data is pulled from Google Books.
- **Multiple libraries** — Manage several distinct physical collections under one account (home, office, vacation home, etc.).
- **Reading status tracking** — Mark books as Currently Reading, Read, Want to Read, or Did Not Finish. Log start dates, finish dates, reading duration, and pages read.
- **Detailed location tracking** — Assign books to named shelves with row and position. Find any book in a large collection instantly.
- **Loans and borrowing** — Record who has your books, when they borrowed them, and when they're due back. Automated reminders prevent lost books.
- **Custom fields** — Extend book, author, and publisher records with custom metadata fields (text, numbers, dates, booleans, selectors).
- **Custom lists and tags** — Organize books into unlimited lists and apply unlimited custom tags.
- **Notes** — Write rich-text notes, organize them into collections, and attach them to books. Available on paid plans.
- **Reading goals** — Set and track annual, monthly, or custom reading goals.
- **Analytics and statistics** — Track reading pace, genre distribution, collection growth, and more.
- **Label printing** — Print physical spine or shelf labels from built-in or custom templates.
- **Bulk import** — Import existing collections via CSV or XLSX files.
- **Full data export** — Export your entire library as JSON or XLSX at any time. No lock-in.
- **Public library page** — Optionally share a read-only public view of your collection.
- **Shared libraries** — Invite family members or housemates with configurable permissions.
