Introducing myself

[FWalker]

Hi All,

I'm an avid reader and been using ebook readers for about 12 years now. Been using Calibre on and off for years to convert books and upload them to be Kindle.

Decided to join the forum to ask for help and/or advice.

I have a large fiction library of books for myself, but also my sister. Everything from Sci-Fi / Fantasy / Urban Fantasy / Romance / Paranormal etc.

I'd like to categorize the library by genre - my sister is interested in the various romance book, but not the sci-fi etc.

I've set up a Genre custom field as per the instructions I've found in the online Calibre doco, but I don't want to be going through the library manually to assign Genre to the books.

Anyone have any suggestions on how to get the Genre automatically assigned to the books from either Amazon or Goodreads metadata??? Couldn't find a plugin that would do this.

Cheers
Fiona
