Plugin for making a summary list about your books

[equilan1986]

Hi everyone!

I have recently stared using Calibre and I like it very much. It's much easier now to follow how many books I have now and search for a specified book I need from my ebooks during studies. My question would be, that is there a plugin for this wonderfull program, which i can use to make a summary about my books with specified details like title, author, publication date etc., and then print it out for later purposes?

What you ask for is built into calibre as a catalog function. Click the drop down arrow next to the Convert Books icon. This will allow you to create a catalog of the selected books.

FYI there are sticky posts at the top of each calibre forum with info applicable to anyone seeking how things work and are a great source of info for those starting out and those looking to expand their calibre knowledge. The Index of Plugins sticky post is at the top of the Plugins forum and outlines every plugin available through calibre's program under preferences - plugins.

You can find the Creating Catalogs: Start here sticky in the Catalogs subforum, describing the various options for creating catalogs.
