Here's my new question: Is there a way to have a single title with multiple series entries? Example - I have a title which is book 6 in one series but is book 4 in a different series and I want to have a collection for both series names.


Also I think I saw in the users manual that you can change where calibre gets metadata but I wasn't clear how to do that. Any help would be appreciated.
question 2 first: Have you been to the Preferences: Advanced: Plugins?
Take a peek at Metadata download?

question 1: Series is only 1 series name (and index).
(curious, how can a book belong to 2 series? Overlapping universe? )
For (sub-)series (cycles), I resort to hyphens:"Darkover-Clingfire". your (manual) choice on how to index (Place in sub-series, or over all series)
You might be able to create an alternate-series column and use a computed column, but I don't see the solution to the different index numbers.
