Renaming a Book ? - Sony 505
Sometimes when I install a book or PDF on my reader the name is not what I would like to see.
I would like to change the name.

Can I do this in ELibrary through PC or should I just rename the file before I even put it into Ereader Library.

Thanks for advice

Calibre will enable you to edit book titles among many other items.

Is there any way to rename them without installing Calibre?

Thanks for your reply but when I right click in Library program there is no Rename selection.
So I suppose I will have to do it through Explorer

I'm guessing this is in the actual folder where the books are stored? I haven't tried that but I have tried right clicking in the Library.

The OP is referring to changing the metadata of the eBooks.
