How do you store and catalog your vinyl?

I just rely on my memory of what I have and where,  they are I have about 1000 Lps for now.

I use a program called Music Collector that can be found at Collectorz.com. I actually enjoyed doing the catalog work. As simple or as complicated as you want it to be.

I have about 3,000 LPs (and around 6,000 CDs). I don't have the LPs cataloged, never felt the need, altho Music Collector or Discogs are both workable, depending. The LPs are stored in modular fashion in U-Haul Small Moving Boxes, which at 12 5/8" x 12 5/8" x 16 3/8" are sized precisely to hold LPs, are inexpensive, and are readily available. These boxes are laid top open on their side with the album jacket's spine exposed on simple plywood and concrete block shelves (in the ground floor storage room, thank you...) which keeps the LPs comfortably accessible yet stored correctly. (Remember that those LPs add up to *a lot* or weight when choosing where to shelve them...) The collection is sorted first by general genre: classical, folk, rock/pop, world, etc. Within a genre, the sorting is more ad hoc based on composer, performer, instrumentation or whatever seems most salient about an LP. If one uses software to catalog one's LP collection, the sensible way to file them would be to match however the software sorts them.

CDs are a different matter...

A few thousand LP's, sorted by speed, then mono, stereo or quadrophonic, then by genre. Sorted within genre chronologically.

Also, a special category for 100 of my favourites. LP's rotate into and out of that category, but it stays around 100.

Discogs to catalog, hands down the best. Plus, when you go to sell one, it’s ready to list! (Sorry Audiogon!)

MoFi inner sleeves are hands down the best.
