software for book keeping ?
Hi,
I got my PRS-700 this morning and am very glad so far. But I don't think the default Sony's eBook Library software is capable of handling many ebooks in proper categorized ways. It does have but not much (at least for me) especially the area of sorting the books. For example, I add many books at same time and before categorize to collections, it's very annoying to find desired books among all books + no options for sorting like by time I added to library. I have tried calibre but I think it doesn't have options to create collections like Sony's eBook Library. So, would you mind asking what software you use to manage tons of ebooks ? thanks in advance ps. sorry about my English |

You can even sort by relative placement # or size of book in a collection. *note* the time is included in the date column. If you sort by date and have added several, or even a hundred, ebooks on that day, you can visually see the time that each was added to the library. WDE. |

thanks guys, for giving advice. I think calibre is the best tool for me. I can sort using its tags easily now and it's really awesome
btw, what software you guys use if need editing to read downloaded PDF on your PRS-700 model ? I use PDFCropper and so far it's awesome. I just want to cut out the unnecessary portions like margins and whitespace to make texts bigger on the reader and so, that program suits my purpose. |

calibre can convert text based PDF, but for image pdf you're using a good one
