Calibre version 0.8.24:
Click on arrow next to "Edit Metadata"
Select "Edit Metadata Individually"
Make sure Title and Author are correctly entered in the boxes at the top
Click on Download Metadata button middle bottom of screen
In the popup, once your choices of the publishers show up, select the one you prefer (one with both cover and summary checked off)
Click next
Click on the cover art you prefer
Click OK
Sounds long to do but I do it all the time. I prefer to choose my covers rather than do a bulk cover search for multiple books because I can make my own choices as to what I get.
If no cover art is found, you have the option of putting the Calibre default cover and putting the author name and the book title on it.
There are plugins that add more sites (Barnes & Noble, Fantastic Fiction) to look for metadata in Calibre.
Click on the arrow next to Preferences in the toolbar, from the menu select Get plugins to enhance Calibre, from the next window select Barnes & Noble, Fantastic Fiction and Goodreads. You will have to restart Calibre for the new sources to work.
