It's going fine; I just do 10 books a day or so, just like I ripped 10 CD's a day until I was done rebuilding my music library.

Oh I'm not worried about the published ebooks in my library; those are fairly okay tags wise. It's the saved fanfics I have in Calibre that are nightmare inducing, and they make up most of my electronic reading material since most of my serious reading stuff are still in pbooks.
Really, the Archive of Our Own is awesome for downloading fics for offline reading when paired with calibre and the FFDL plugin: but their tagging system, or lack of one makes me want to shoot something when I see the jumble of tags in calibre courtesy of the downloaded metadata. I like the canonical tags on AO3 sourced fics, and there are freeform tags that are particularly useful. However downloading that data also entails downloading useless drivel in the tags too and it drives me crazy as well as slows tag browsing. How many times must I delete tags that go along the lines of "
I was drunk gaiz!" and "
OHMAHGERD I HAVE SO MANY FEEEELS"from my library?
