Specific features for a large family library.

system: Windows 10
We are looking for a library system for a non-circulating library of about 18,000 items that can: 1) Log in items quickly using the bar code on the item (it it has one) or scan the title and author.
2) Place a barcode in the item to keep track of it in the library (i.e. I know we have to place the barcode manually and we need them with our name on them).
3) Have the system easily find the items in the library showing their location.
4) If we buy a license up (1 user, 5 computers), is that only buying a license to run separate iterations of the program on five separate computers, or is there some way of syncing or sharing the tables on one computer to another? I.e. one computer can manage data entry for the catalogue, and the same catalogue can be searched on another computer with the search module.
5. If the second isn't the case, which licenses would work for that capability?
6. What do they cost? Also, I assume you have a barcode reader that works with these and what does that cost?
The library is just an unusually large family library (20,000ish books/items), and we would like the ability to have the catalogue searchable from different locations in the house.

1.You can scan ISBN bar code from the book and automatically catalogue all your items, assuming the information is accessible from the web book search sites supported by our software.
2.Our system can create unique barcode numbers for all your items. Then you can print barcode labels with barcodes, titles, authors, or other information to be placed on the book or inside the book.
3.Handy library manager support simple or complex search.
4.If the software is installed on separate computers (that are not on LAN local area network), user is responsible to transfer library data from the main library computer. There is simple backup/restore procedure that support easy library data transfer between computers.
5.The network installation offers the best data access. Main data is stored on the server, client computers run application or search with the data from the server.
6.Handy Library Manager costs $345.00 (one computer) - $604.95 (network), you can review software prices. We don't provide barcodes, we list links to affordable barcode scanners for libraries:
