I have a Sony Reader 950 and use the Sony Reader library software. I download many free library books that use DRM to limit your reading time to 21 days. This works ok. Two things I want to be able to do.

Add a tag or something to be able to tell a book has been read. I want to keep all my read books in my library, even if my usage has expired so that I can tell I have read that book

Edit Megadata, particularly to add covers.

I created a collection for read books with sony software, but it starts showing errors when a book usage period expires and sync tries to occur.

Am i missing an easy way to keep up with read books on the reader or the reader software on the desktop?

Will Calibre handle legal DRM management of usage time? I am not trying to remove DRM. But Calibre allows adding user created tags and updating of metadata, I think.

Thank You!
