Has anyone tried Lazy Librarian / Calibre / GoodReads setup?
-
I have an ebook Library in Calibre and have seen posts about Lazy Librarian working in conjuction with Calibre and GoodReads that will follow Authors / Series and form wishlists. Sounds like it might be nice.
Apparently the project has moved to GitLab here https://gitlab.com/LazyLibrarian/LazyLibrarian.

@scotth Not I but it looks interesting.

I'm currently using Calibre's web server in my home network. Nice to be able to read a book from whatever device I happen to be on at the moment.

@jmoore They claim that you can tag an author or series and it will scrape the net and add books to your wish list. It should make it easy to manage a purchase list or borrow list from the library.
@dafyre I've been using the EPUBReader extension in Chrome. Does pretty good although it doesn't auto-bookmark where you're at in the book. You have to bookmark your spot when you close the browser. I just got used to hitting 'D' while I'm reading. -
@scotth Sounds cool for sure

LazyLibrarian will search and initiate downloads of books, and once download completes it will add it to Calibre library. It's not a software to manage you collection of purchased books, its purpose is to find books on usenet and torrent sites and send these to download clients. It's like Sonarr or Radarr, but for ebooks.
