multi-user features?

Dear Tellico users,

I am new to Tellico; in fact I have not yet started using it.
Before diving in deeper, I would like to know a few things about
Tellico's multi-user capacity (or lack thereof).

I am searching for a solution for managing my book collection.
However, the collection is not entirely "personal"; it belongs to my
family and friends, too.

Therefore, there are more that one users who would need to use this
software.

What are Tellico's multi-user capacities?

Can it store who edited which record?
Can it store who has and who has not read a given book?
Can it store the notes of different users about the same book?

Thank you for your help:

    Kristof Csillag

Nothing inherently multi-user, I'm afraid. Tellico is rather simple in 
that respect.

To answer all 3 of those questions, only if you add a custom field and 
edit/update the value of that field manually, which I wouldn't expect 
you to want to do.
