Caliber 7.13

Version 7.12 of Caliber has been released. This open source e-book management program is almost indispensable for any e-reader owner. It can, among other things, look up all relevant information and cover images, edit and convert e-books to make them suitable for various types of e-readers. Furthermore, the program can convert newspapers, magazines and news articles into e-book format based on RSS feeds and books can be purchased from well-known online stores. Caliber is available for Windows, Linux and macOS.

In version 7.0, the ability to add notes, for example, authors and series, and support for EPUB audiobooks has been added. Additional files can also be added to books, such as an alternative cover image, and Caliber now has its own trash can, which can be used instead of the one in the operating system.
