Calibre seems ideal to me, as it offers the possibility of an integrated server allowing consultation of the book's details, the list by author or genre, as well as allowing the book description to be downloaded.

It is amusing to me how every time a question comes up more people are on about how you cant and it wont work instead of trying to help.
You seem to require a very basic system and can achieve most of what you want using 4-5 custom columns for lending status/user/date borrowed / date due back. If I am not wrong you can also get the the box to change color for overdue books etc.
