"year-year" does mean minimum and maximum year but, as I typed earlier, any series, regardless of length, would only require me to manually make a single folder of my preferred format into which I'd drag the (hopefully) already properly labeled books in the series. Basically, if I (we ) can configure just one save template:


EBooks/FIRSTNAME.LASTNAME/{year} - BookTiltle{year}/BookTitle{year}.extension


where "FIRSTNAME.LASTNAME" is the author, "{year}" is the year published in brackets, and "BookTitle{year}" is the book title, with the first letter of every word capitalized and no spaces between words (and I've no need for anything special regarding "a", "an", "the", etc.), followed by the year published in brackets, then I'd be set, as about 97% of the file-folder renaming would be automated. Heck, I can even move everything to the folder "EBooks" on my external drive manually, so a template:


FIRSTNAME.LASTNAME/{year} - BookTiltle{year}/BookTitle{year}.extension

for example

FRANKLIN.TIBBETS/{1966} - BirthOfGreatness{1966}/BirthOfGreatness.epub


would be just fine. Also, for what it's worth, I don't care a lick about any actual metadata or tags beyond their need for creating a save template; as long as my book files and storage folders are properly labeled I'm good to go. Could I do something with custom tags involving the authors name, the year published, and the book title? Even if I have to input the book title without spaces and the year published in brackets manually, at least the renaming of the folders would be automated. Thanks again to everybody for their help, I really do appreciate it .
