Delicious Library
Delicious Library is a proprietary media library application for macOS developed by Delicious Monster. It allows users to catalog their books, movies, music, video games, and other media by scanning barcodes using a webcam or by entering information manually. The software then retrieves metadata from various online sources to populate the library.
Features[edit | edit source]
Delicious Library offers a range of features designed to help users manage their media collections:
- **Barcode Scanning**: Users can scan barcodes using their Mac's built-in iSight camera or an external webcam. The software uses this information to fetch metadata from online databases.
- **Metadata Retrieval**: The application retrieves detailed information about each item, including cover art, author or artist names, publisher information, and release dates.
- **Library Organization**: Users can organize their collections into shelfs and categories, making it easy to browse and find items.
- **Loan Tracking**: Delicious Library includes a loan tracking feature that allows users to keep track of items they have lent out to friends and family.
- **Recommendations**: The software provides recommendations based on the user's collection and preferences.
- **Integration**: Delicious Library integrates with other macOS applications and services, such as Address Book and iCal, to enhance its functionality.
History[edit | edit source]
Delicious Library was first released in 2004 by Delicious Monster, a company founded by Wil Shipley and Mike Matas. The application quickly gained popularity due to its innovative use of the Mac's built-in camera for barcode scanning and its visually appealing interface.
Reception[edit | edit source]
The software has received positive reviews for its ease of use, design, and functionality. It has won several awards, including an Apple Design Award in 2005.
