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. Books in other formats like MOBI must first be converted to those formats, if they are to be edited. Editing books is supported for EPUB and AZW3 formats. Calibre supports organizing existing e-books into virtual libraries, displaying, editing, creating and converting e-books, as well as syncing e-books with a variety of e-readers.
Calibre ( / ˈ k æ l ɪ b ər/, stylised calibre) is a cross-platform free and open-source suite of e-book software.
