Software to manage my book collection

Question

Is there any software letting me manage my book collection and sync it with anobii or any other online reading community?

aNobii is an online reading community built by readers for readers allowing you to shelve, find and share books. Our mission is to bring book lovers together and encourage reading.

There is an API for aNobii and here is software using that API.
But that is about it ... to use this on Ubuntu you still need a script/GUI and I have not found anything but this. So the answer for now is: No.

Another approach for books without an e: aNobii can use the barcode on the back of a book. So get a barcode reader, attach it to your system and scan books while you are on the website. Of course you can also do this with your phone but that is off topic unless it is a Ubuntu phone :+)

I don't know about anobii, but I use calibre (sudo apt-get install calibre) for managing/converting my ebooks.
