As far as I can see there is unfortunately one problem with the Calibre solution above, unless I'm missing something.

Calibre will only load books it can 'see' directly. So if your (large) collection is housed in author folders, nested within genre folders, then you would be reduced to locating and loading them one by one -- which would be a serious pain.

So far I'm still inclined to go the ultra-simple route of Karen's Directory Printer. I can have a complete .txt booklist of my 1,600-book collection with just a little tweaking in about 10 minutes, which is perfect, then pretty it up a little in MSWord. Only slight disadvantage is that I cannot get it to list alphabetically as author - title, only the other way around. But I can live with that.
