Hello All,

I checked on the forum but couldn't find the information. Also I hope this is at the right place, other wise please relocate my post @modo

I just got my wife a kobo libra H2O (she loved mine) . So now we have 2 ereader but one computer with calibre.

Here is my set up :
1 laptop , 1 account for each to log in.
But I only use my account to open calibre to upload books to both ereaders.
I have only one library.

If we read the same book how calibre will know what % we stopped or if i finish a book and my wife start reading one....

Do you have any suggestions on how i manage the library ? Do i need to create 2 libraries with the same books ?

Can Calibre recognize our ereader and know that i read 55% of the book or finished it and my wife is only at 15%

Thank you for your help, I am getting confused.
