Greetings, new to the Calibre tool and have a question for the forum which I could not find any threads on (so apologies if this is already out there, I simply couldn't find). I have my library of audio books nicely kept in Calibre on my Windows 7 PC. What I would like to be able to do is publish my library to my iPad (or iPod, iPhone or even Kindle Fire). I don't mean publish the actual MP3's (or ebook's), just the full inventory of books that I own. Goal is to be able to identify what I have in my library when I'm not in front of my PC. I did see that I can use the CONNECT / SHARE function to start the web server, but I was thinking of (1) not keeping my computer running all the time as a webserver, and (2) not always having an internet connection available (iPhone yes, but not iPod, iPad or Kindle.

Long post, hope it makes sense. Grateful for any feedback or thoughts.

Herb
