To clarify, I will not be maintaining the same books in differing libraries.

My primary concern is the effect (or lack of same) to the Reader.

Your info is very helpful - however, I am not certain yet as to the effect of all of these different libraries to the Reader - I assume the Reader will "handle" it all?

Thanks for all of your time and trouble! -- Rique
Hello again Rique -- so does this mean you went for the Sony?

In terms of the coexistence of Calibre, ADE, and Sony Library, I run all three on the PC and my Sony is very happy working with any of them. I don't ever have all 3 (or any combination of the 3) open at the same time... don't know if that would cause problems or not.

However, for example today, I downloaded an ePub book and loaded it onto my Sony via ADE. I also used Calibre to convert a PDF to LRF and moved that to my Sony. I also opened Sony library software and did some moving around within there and everything worked just fine.

Hope this helps and answers your questions somewhat.

Best regards,
