That was my assumption, and I figured I'd need an external tool.

But you can use the create catalog function in calibre to create a csv of all books in any library and them use whatever tool you like to process that csv.

And that was the piece I needed to know.
If I can get it into a CSV, I can get that into something that presents the view I want.
I essentially have two needs:
A top level unified view of possible multiple libraries. (I don't have them yet, but am likely to.)
A way to see what all is on my tablet based on the metadata Calibre places there when it transfers books,
without invoking my eBook viewer.
Create catalog and output to CSV handles first. Suggestions on the second are gratefully accepted.
