calibre | Organise and read your own ebooks
Official name:calibre
calibre helps organise an existing ebook collection, read files and edit books. Its website connects software information, downloads and help. Treat it as a library tool, not as a shop that supplies permission to read or redistribute a work.

What it is useful for
calibre is a free, open-source ebook manager for people who want to organise a personal library, read ebooks or edit book files. Start with the files you already have and the task you need to complete, then choose the relevant management, reading or editing feature.

What the official site provides
The About page lists library management, an ebook viewer, library sharing and backup, and book editing. The main navigation links to Download and Help. Use Download to find the software and Help to investigate a workflow rather than treating a search advertisement as the project entrance.

Start with a small collection
A sensible first step is to try a few ebooks you are entitled to use and confirm that they read correctly before exploring organisation and editing. Consult the official help before sharing or backing up a library, and retain your original files. A small check is preferable to an immediate collection-wide change.

Separate software and website privacy
The privacy page distinguishes the application from the website: the website uses third-party advertising and traffic analytics, while the software does not use those advertising or statistics services. The software statement should not be extended into a claim that the whole website has no advertising or analytics.

Deciding whether to use it
A library manager is worth trying when the main difficulty is finding and organising book files you already possess. If you need an authorised edition of a work, first locate a legitimate distribution channel. Being able to open, edit or share a file is not the same as holding redistribution rights.
