If you want to use WordPress you can download a custom post type plugin (such as Custom Post Type UI), create your Book post type; another plugin to generate your form for adding books (Gravity Forms + this looks good, or a similar solution, or create a form by hand). Then tweak the default WordPress search feature to search through Book post type only (you can use a search engine to find out how to ‘limit search to custom post type in WordPress’ or something similar).
If you end up using WordPress then don’t use Dreamweaver – last I checked it was for pure HTML/CSS work.
