Solution 1:

Shelve is a terrible module (both slow and insecure), and you should never use it.

If you're looking for an easy-to-use in-memory (or file-backed) database that's part of the Python standard library, take a look at the sqlite3 module: http://docs.python.org/2/library/sqlite3.html

It's rock solid, powerful (it's a full-fledged SQL database), well-documented and remarkably fast.

EDIT: Also, as @roippi said, to actually read your files, you'll need to use the csv module: http://docs.python.org/2/library/csv.html
