Duplicate Detection
I see that there have been previous questions on duplicate detection and I have read through those threads.
My problem is that I have a 6000+ book library. I have quite a few duplicate books (duplicate by title and perhaps author). This is caused by getting the same book from different sources. I'd like to have a list of all of the duplicates, at the most obvious level, in my Calibre library so I could easily go through them, delete some of them, merge others, etc. Calibre allows you to look for the duplicate of a *specific* book that you have selected. There is not a global function of "display books that appear to be duplicates" that I can find. Can someone suggest a means of doing this task? Otherwise, I'm down to sorting my books by title and scrolling through the entire library looking for double or triple entries, which is quite tedious. |
