Best way to manage book series.
I want to know is there any better way to mange book series.
I have some books in the series, some of them of many books in 1 series, others just have few or one. If I want to browsing books, it will appear a lot of books in the same series, which make others hard to be seen. Wondering is there a way to group the series together, or only showing 1 book of the series. |

Apple's books will also group books in one series together, as long as you buy the books from Apple and Apple recognizes them as a series. |

I did not notice there are a caliber forum at the bottom, my bad. Did you mean the tag browser "series" filter, which only showing list of series names? Or a view that can show the the series in cover? |

Both. You can also sort by author, title, series and a number of other ways.

I think my question was asking ambiguously, or I can not find a way to do it. I am able to list all different series in name in the left panel. or show all the books(covers) in a specific series in the main panel. But can not find a way to show all different series, but only a book(cover) for each series in the main panel. Quote:
I never know there is a quick view, it is kind of handy compare with the left panel. |

With the searche
Code:
series_index:"1" You could use that to create a virtual library. If you use the cover grid, you could add an icon to the covers of books with a series. In the book list you could mark line with books in a series with a rule. |
