Hi, Tony here calling from the sunny UK, and yes it is sunny and no rain today.
I have been using Calibre for some time now, and perhaps I use it differently to others, perhaps someone can offer an alternative:-
this is what I do, I have several sources for books, and once a month or so I gather what books that take my fancy, load them into Calibre, load metadata and download a suitable cover if it does not come with one. Then to keep track of the books I have, the title and author is copied into a spread sheet, then I transfer the books to my tablet for reading. What I would really really like is some ability to export or copy and paste a group (perhaps 10) at a time. single title, then author copy and paste is such a drag.
