I'm not saying my wife it computer illiterate, but she is definitely technologically challenged! She still can not figure out how to add e-books to calibre in order to manage them on her Sony PRS-300. Is there a function or option to have Calibre automatically scan a specified folder for new content, and add the new e-books every time the program is started? She downloads a bunch of books from the library and they automatically get placed in the Digital Editions Folder on her MacBook, and she can never figure out how to find them and import them into Calibre so she can click a button to load them on her e-reader.

If this functionality already exist, can some one tell me how to enable it? If it does not exist is it a function that can be added to a later release? Thanks again for the awesome program and support!
