Question Duplicates on Kindle and Kobo
Is there a way other than sorting by title and comparing to determine what books are on both devices?

Yes, if you have the books tagged accordingly in Calibre. If not, then yeah, you must compare them manually.

Yes, there is a way. Create two custom Y/N columns. One for each device. Using the Reading list plugin, you can have it set the appropriate Y for each column based on what's on each device. Then just search for both columns being Y and you have your duplicates.

This method assumes you've loaded each device from the same library in Calibre.

Thank you both for helpful responses. I figured it would be something post-graduate level while I'm still in the primary phase.

If you are using the same Calibre library to side load the Kobo and the Kindle, go to the Reading List plugin and have a read and if you get stuck, ask for help there.
