You can then browse and download the books onto your device.
You are a lifesaver. I use Calibre to manage my library, on my employer-supplied MacBook Air. Well, they decided to write-restrict our USB ports. I wanted to put a new book on the Kobo for the first time today since that happened - no workee.

Well, the content server worked GREAT. It was fast, it was easy, and I'm ready to read now.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! :-)
