Synchronise with LibraryThing
Is there a way to keep metadata of an ebook (its tags from example) synchronised with my book entry in LibraryThing?

Have a look at the ImportList plugin thread, I have a vague memory of a discussion of getting a CSV out of LT and using Import List to update a calibre library metadata ==>> Index of plugins

And/Or, you could export metadata from calibre as a CSV 'catalogue' and import it into LT, assuming it has a CSV import.

There is a LibraryThing metadata source plugin, but it hasn't been updated for a long time. And it requires each user to get a developers key from LibraryThing.

There has been other discussion about LibraryThing, and having a quick look at their API, there are issues. Some of the APIs have daily limit on the number of requests. Which is the reason for the individual developers key above. And there are some license issues. There is another API that is probably suitable for what you want. That doesn't appear to need a developers key.

Beyond that, I can't say. I don't use LibraryThing, and have never looked at it beyond the above. And I don't have any interest in doing so. I'll stick with Goodreads.

Sounds promising, @davidfor. Where can I find this plugin?I looked through the Index of plugins, but didn't see anything like this.

If you search for "librarything" IN the plugin sub-forum, it should pop up.
