Wondering about having separate librarys in Calibre.

davtay · 12-13-2010, 08:31 PM

I manage my ebook library for my Kindle 3 through Calibre, and I can't think of a more seamless and easy to use program that offers tons of options. So here is my question. I have bought my daughter a Kindle 3 for Christmas and I was wondering if I can set up her library separately from mine in Calibre?

Could someone point me in the right direction on how I would go about this? I have only been a kindle/calibre user for a couple of weeks and could use a little shove in the proper direction.

Thanks for your help.

David.

If you want to setp and/or use a seperate library under Calibre this is done by using the options available via the Library icon on the Calibre toolbar.

Thank you itimpi. Should have been obvious. I am a little overwhelmed as the program does so much. Thanks again for your help.

Things are often obvious when you find them - but not until then

Part of the evolution of Calibre is trying to keeps its power (and increase it) while at the same time as far as possible to make the functionality "discoverable". For the more advanced options there is a bit of a tension between these two aims.
