In Calibre that's stored in the metadata-so I'm trying to find an Android reader app that will display the metadata from Calibre. Do you know of any?

Note that I can't use Calibre as a content server. (Or won't-maybe I could set it up, I'm not sure of that, but I won't leave my PC on when I'm not home.)

Thanks.
The Calibre Companion app can display all calibre metadata including custom columns. It can also group on most metadata (text-based columns) and sort on several standard metadata items. The metadata is updated on the device every time you connect to calibre as a wireless device, avoiding the "must resend the book to get new metadata" problem that most reader apps have.
