Axis360

I am trying to set up Calibre to get books from https://cns.axis360.baker-taylor.com/. I downloaded the GUI overdrive plug in, and started customizing, but I keep getting an error that the address must be alphanumeric. Can someone help me with this?

The MobileRead thread for the Overdrive Link plugin is here.

To configure Axis 360 you need to click the green plus sign to add a new library, select Axis 360 as the Provider, then double click the Library ID field and type the ID for your library. In this case it will be cns.

From the plugin help page:

Quote:

Find libraries using http://axis360.site.baker-taylor.com/FindALibrary.aspx. The library-id can be found by inspecting the host name in the browser address bar for the portion preceding axis360.baker-taylor.com. For the Orange County (Florida) Library System the Axis 360 web site is http://ocls.axis360.baker-taylor.com/ and so the library-id is ocls.

I have everything set up, but no format is available. I have others that were able to update, because I had downloaded to ADD, but the only format available is Axis 360 ebook. Calibre says no format found. Can Calibre read Axis 360 ebooks?

As far as I know you need to use their app or a web browser to read those books.

Thank you for your response. Guess I will just keep to libraries that use ADD.
