Calibre – ebook library management

I keeps downloading ebook and mostly IT related PDFs, after all these years it becomes hard to manage. Google a while and find this open source application is quite useful to me.

http://calibre-ebook.com

Recommended plugin

Extract ISBN (Installation guide) – it will open first 10 pages and last 5 pages to find ISBN, most files OK with this, some Apress pdfs incorrectly put preface & ToC at the end so require manually Ctrl+F ISBN.

After ISBN found, selected all pinned ebooks and right click > Edit metadata > Download metadata and covers

 

ToDo

Save to Disk in a single directory > customized filename formatting.
