NOTE TO UPGRADERS to > version 2022.04.09.XX:

This last commit adds an extra field to the config file.
Errors/warnings will occur unless you add this field. Edit ~/.librarian.cfg and add:

LIBRARIAN = Your Preferred Name

in the [database] section.

If this is different to you login name this will affect DB searches where books already exist with your login name
as book.owner.

In that case this will require a manual database update

This SQl will do that.
UPDATE books SET owner = 'new name' where owner = 'old login';
Or use your favourite DB GUI.
I don't think there's a safe way to do this automatically.

New installs have the ~/.librarian.cfg populated correctly with dummy values that need to manually updated before using the application properly.

This change was prompted by the addition of the bookmark printing facility. Which is still a WIP and I guess many people will never use and find the current implementation a PITA. Maybe this needs a config entry too. As the Irish say, "I wouldn't be starting from here" if I wanted to get to where I wanted to when I started.
