Finally, don't care about folders

Sydney's Mom · 12-05-2009, 12:57 PM

I spent the last week cataloging my books in Calibre. The reason it took longer than a minute was I had a lot of books from self-publishers for which the meta wouldn't automatically download. I now have 753 books, with descriptions and covers for all, which have tags. I can sort my cover, just like my ipod, or tag. I am in heaven!

I still need to do this. I will plan it every friday, and then something comes up and I don't do it and on monday I could beat myself with a stick. But I really need to do it ! And I know it will take the biggest part of the weekend (over 2,000 books in there !)

It really is very distressing when people leave the 'fold' in this way! :-(

But you know you don't have to do it all in one sitting, right?

I worked on mine just an hour a day or so....

2000 books! You guys are impressive! I love reading but I think my collection is under 200 hehe. I love calibre, however because I am so lazy I do have some sorting to do..
