Thanks to everyone for the responses so far...but after talking with my
staff further it turns out that what I need is a simple PHP/MySQL database
solution, not a full blown ILS catalog system. We just need to upload some
text based records on the web and have the data searchable and manageable
through an admin login. So suggestions along these lines will be appreciated
as well, and I'll summarize all of it to the list, 

Thanks again!
