I have installed Calibre on my Raspberry Pi and copied my Calibre Library from PC to a USB flash drive and accessing that library now on the Raspberry Pi via the USB drive attached to Raspberry Pi. Calibre Library is also available through the Calibre Server on the Raspberry Pi via browsers on iPad, etc. Using Samba, Raspberry Pi is also now part of my Windows network so have made the Calibre Library on the Raspberry Pi USB my main library and books added to the library on the PC are then available through the Raspberry Pi Calibre Server. I keep Raspberry Pi on constantly so Calibre library is always available. Now need to investigate if I can access the library when away from local wifi network!!!
