It's the thing that has the best access to all my ebooks. I can also, conveniently, copy books from my phone to my kindle via usb. So does iOS have an app that can organize and catagorize Ebooks?

If you buy an ebook from Amazon or another shop, you get a file with (hopefully?) proper quality and that’s it.

But as someone reading older books, Project Gutenberg seems overwhelming. I tried to find all Sherlock Holmes novels to put on my Kindle (using KOreader). But for each novel you can find multiple different files (only counting the epubs) which apparently differ in many ways. Might be the edition of the book, collections, books with or without illustrations, books having proper chapter marks or not, …

How do you deal with this? Is there some „proper“ way to find the ideal file for me?

The same might of course apply to other epub sources, being a very frustrating experience.

A short intro regarding the purpose of this community.

If you are solely making use of project Gutenberg (gutenberg.org) or use a subscription book reading service, you will probably never face any issues reading your books and finding the exact book that you are looking for.

However, for all people who collect books (physical) or ebooks (digital), you will need to think about how to organize them at some point.

Here comes the Ebook Management community, where we discuss ebooks and how to organize and handle them in the most effective way.

Personally I have tried and used some of the options, but eventually I put my NAS to work. A docker container running Komga (komga.org) is what I am using with great pleasure. Either for books (mostly epub and pdf) as well as comics (cbz).

Let this new community know your struggles regarding ebooks and how you have overcome them. What software, formats you are using and so on.

Welcome!
