I am setting up a new server for my media and wanted to ask for your best ways to manage an ebook and comic collection. I have been using calibre so far, but it is not really designed to be managed remotely.

    I think lazylibrarian is user to search and download books automatically. Are you using calibre as in the native tool, or calibre-web?

      Native tool, not the web. So far, I have not felt the need to use anything else; calibre does decent management and connects to my koreader installations on ebook readers, while the abs app handles all interactions with phones. The latter has good wife-approval but the syncing through calibre to readers is complex and not super reliable, so it still requires “admin intervention”
