The server includes a simple and elegant browser front-end that allows you to search for and download books from your library. And if you go traveling, you don’t need to worry about taking your ebook collection with you! Keeping your ebooks on a server is great, as you aren’t reliant on having the same reading device with you whenever you want to read. What do I need to do so that what I point Calibre to as my default library folder also contains all my previous files? I just want one consolidated Calibre Library folder, instead of what I have now, where all my previous files are segregated into a different folder and appear in their own list within Calibre itself instead of in the main Library.Calibre is a free and open source ebook manager.Īlthough Calibre is probably better known for its desktop client, it can also act as a powerful server, allowing you to access your ebooks from anywhere in the world (or share your collection with friends).
I was unsure what to do, so cancelled the process.
However, there was also a metadata.db file in "Import", and Calibre asked me if I wanted to replace the new. I then tried to select all the files in "Import" and simply move it into "Calibre Library" so I could have everything (both previous and future files) simply live in one folder. So I created a new empty folder within "Calibre Library" called "Import" and imported all my files there. Where I'm confused is that when specifying a new location for the import, it had to be an empty folder, meaning I couldn't select the default "Calibre Library" folder, as it already contained a metadata.db file and the Quick Start Guide. I created an export of all my calibre data from my old computer, installed Calibre on my new computer, then "imported previously saved data" onto my new computer from the export location.
