Hi folks,

I came a across a couple of thoughts that I wanted to share and a couple of questions.

1) how many books you guys have and whats the size of your calibre folder? my numbers are: 1628 books / 2.65 GB

2) what is your experience on managing larger numbers?

the reason why I ask is simple I collected 10000 of Mangas over the years and having them nicely organized in Comic Libraries Im not realy into importing them into Calibre because I fear it becomes a mess in organization and makes it almost impossible finding something to read. currently I even have stored searches to exclude the 500+ scientific documents allready in calibre. but merging them with novels, and normal books is not really usefull.

how you folks are handling this?

just share your experience.

Joe
