Unfortunately not, when I try that I get an error message:-

You have opened this title outside BorrowBox, for example in Adobe Digital Editions. It can only be returned there.

Google’s AI gave this answer.

To return BorrowBox eBooks early, navigate to the 'My Loans' section in the app or website, locate the item, and click the 'Return' button, then confirm. This frees up your loan credit immediately. Items also return automatically at the end of the loan period.

Thank you, tried that and got the You have opened this title outside BorrowBox, for example in Adobe Digital Editions. It can only be returned there message.

The plugin has been working fine for ages, no problems returning books, don't have any idea why it's started to playup

Have you tried retuning ePub? I just tested returning an ePub and it worked perfectly.

Download this zip from https://github.com/Leseratte10/acsm-calibre-plugin.

Unzip it into a new folder I named mine acsm-calibre-plugin-master.

Now double click on bundle_calibre_plugin.sh select run.

You should now have a zip file named calibre-plugin.zip.

Now open calibre and go to Preferences--Plugins.

Now open calibre and go to Preferences--Plugins.

Now click on "load plugin from file"
Now go to the folder acsm-calibre-plugin-master click on

You will now have the lateness beta acsm plugin with all the new commits

For those who might want to try @gbm's suggestion but do not have a Linux box to run the .sh commands on, I've attached the output .zip files to this message. There do not seem to be any changes in the calibre-migration plugin but included it for anyone who might need it.

Thank you !!

From my testing on 3/8-9/2026 I do not recommend installing the calibre-migration-plugin.zip at this time.

I do highly recommend the calibre-plugin.zip.

I have been running this version of the plugin for a couple years, I check every 2-3 months to see if a new commit has been made.
