The book cataloguing tool built for Turkish stock
Most book scanning tools work fine for English-language books. For Turkish books, they often do not. TitleEntry was built to handle Turkish books properly.
Try TitleEntry
You scan the ISBN, and nothing comes back. Or you get the wrong edition. Or the title has missing characters where a dotted or undotted i, or a cedilla, should be. TitleEntry was built to handle Turkish books properly, not as an afterthought, as a real requirement, built for a real customer.
Why Turkish books are different
Turkish ISBNs often return nothing at all in databases built primarily for the US and UK market. When a standard scanning app queries its usual sources and finds nothing, that is not a bug - the app just was not built with Turkish publishers in mind.
Turkish characters, handled correctly
JavaScript's default case-folding does not treat Turkish İ and I correctly, so a title or author name can come out subtly wrong. TitleEntry queries Turkish book sources alongside international databases and folds Turkish characters correctly throughout the app and in every export.
How it works
Scan the barcode
Point your phone at the ISBN barcode on any Turkish book. TitleEntry looks up the book across Turkish and international sources and returns the correct match - cover image, title, author, publisher, year, and genre.
Review the result
The cover appears on screen alongside the metadata. If anything needs correcting, edit it inline before saving. If a book cannot be found in any source, add it manually. Nothing gets left out of your catalogue.
Export to spreadsheet
When you are done, export your full catalogue as an Excel file in one click. Turkish titles and author names export correctly - no garbled characters, no missing letters.
Also works for shelves without accessible barcodes. Some Turkish stock does not have a readable barcode - older books, second-hand stock in poor condition, books published before ISBNs were standard. For those, TitleEntry's AI shelf scan reads the spine text directly and identifies the book from the title and author printed on the cover. Same result, no barcode needed.
Built with a Turkish bookstore customer
TitleEntry's Turkish book support was built working directly with a bookstore in Turkey that processes a high volume of stock every day. The sources it queries, the character handling, and the export format were all developed against real Turkish inventory, not tested in theory.
