Calibre Library (paid), an app by Tony Maro that allows one to 'Connect wirelessly to your Calibre e-book library or other Stanza source.Calibre Companion (paid), an app by MultiPie, Ltd., recommended by calibre's developers, 'brings complete integration with calibre on your desktop, giving you total control over book management on your device.' John Jermey at Teleread notes this app can manage Calibre/device libraries as if one's mobile device were plugged into computer however, unlike Calibre Cloud, Calibre Companion requires users to be at a computer and use the Calibre-generated local wireless feed ( OPDS).

Because the Calibre-generated local wireless feed ( OPDS) can only be accessed on devices sharing the same network as the Calibre library, this feature of the Calibre Cloud apps is particularly useful when away from one's home network, because it allows one to download and read the contents of one's Calibre library via the Calibre folder in Box, Dropbox, or Google Drive. As Jane Litte at Dear Author and John Jeremy at Teleread observe: This tool can be used to 'create own Cloud of eBooks' and thereby read and allow downloads and emails from one's Calibre library via the Calibre folder in Box.net, Dropbox, or Google Drive. Place your calibre library in your Dropbox, Box, or Google Drive folder, and be able to view, search, and download from your library anywhere'.

Calibre Cloud (free) and Calibre Cloud Pro (paid), apps by Intrepid Logic that let one 'access your Calibre e-book library from anywhere in the world.

Since version 1.15, released in December 2013, Calibre also contains an application to create and edit e-books directly, similar to the more full-featured editor tools of the Sigil application, but without the latter's WYSIWYG editing mode. Also, if the Calibre library on the host computer is stored in a cloud service, such as Box.net, Google Drive, or Dropbox, then either the cloud service or a third-party app, such as Calibre Cloud or CalibreBox, can remotely access the library. This can be accomplished via a web browser, if the host computer is running and the device and host computer share the same network in this case, pushing harvested content from content sources is supported on a regular interval (called 'subscription'). Mailing e-books enables, for example, sending personal documents to the Amazon Kindle family of e-readers and tablet computers. E-books can then be exported to all supported reading devices via USB, Calibre's integrated mail server, or wirelessly. This conversion is facilitated by so-called recipes, short programs written in a Python-based domain-specific language. Also, online content can be harvested and converted to e-books.

Į-books can be imported into the Calibre library, either by sideloading files manually or by wirelessly syncing an e-book reading device with the cloud storage service in which the Calibre library is backed up, or with the computer on which Calibre resides. It is possible to search the Calibre library by various fields, such as author, title, or keyword however as of 2020, full-text search has not yet been implemented.

Metadata can be pulled from many different sources, e.g., online booksellers and providers of free e-books and periodicals in the US and elsewhere, such as the Internet Archive, Munsey's Magazine, and Project Gutenberg and social networking sites for readers, such as Goodreads and LibraryThing. Ĭalibre allows users to sort and group e-books by metadata fields. Calibre does not natively support DRM removal, but may allow DRM removal after installing plug-ins with such a function. Conversion and editing are easily applied to appropriately licensed digital books, but commercially purchased e-books may need to have digital rights management (DRM) restrictions removed. Most e-book formats can be edited, for example, by changing the font, font size, margins, and metadata, and by adding an auto-generated table of contents. Features Ĭalibre supports many file formats and reading devices. In 2008, the program, for which a graphical user interface was developed, was renamed 'calibre', displayed in all lowercase. With support from the MobileRead forums, Goyal reverse-engineered the proprietary Broad Band eBook ( BBeB) file format.

On 31 October 2006, when Sony introduced its PRS-500 e-reader, Kovid Goyal started developing libprs500, aiming mainly to enable use of the PRS-500 formats on Linux.
