Version 7.0 adds the ability to add notes to authors and series, for example, and adds support for EPUB audiobooks. It also adds the ability to add additional files to books, such as an alternative cover image, and Calibre now has its own trash can, which can be used instead of the OS one. This update also includes the following changes and improvements:
New features

- Conversion: Add an option under Structure detection to automatically fill in blank alt attributes for images that have alt text in the image file metadata.

- Review downloaded metadata dialog: Add a “Previous” button to go back to the last reviewed book.
