This is how I do it on Windows with Calibre itself too. Just the metadata/library/covers to browse then download the book as needed to save space.

I would like to have everything on an external SD card though because there are scenarios where I can't mobile hotspot from my phone. That doesn't work sadly, like Calibre Companion it can download and index the files fine to OTG SD card but not open them. Nothing much does on the Leaf that's a problem I'm looking at after I unbrick my Leaf (trying to solve this issue in the first place LOL) and try to work out how to make OTG a useful feature if it's even possible at all with Android 10.

Thanks @Loosheesh I might look into that as a setup I guess that's to help prevent corruption of the .db due to sync conflicts?

Do you find that this method is efficient on your boox device? I am new to that and have been organizing my library, but don't know what the most efficient method would be in order to play nice with my boox page.
