Calibre Web

Web UI to browse, read, and download eBooks from a Calibre library

GPL-3.0 self-hosted

Calibre-Web provides a clean, intuitive web interface for a valid Calibre database. It lets people browse, search, filter, read, and download eBooks, create custom shelves, edit or delete metadata, and upload books in several formats, including audio formats. Readers can use supported formats in the browser, access the library through an OPDS feed, send books to e-readers with one click, or sync Kobo devices. Calibre binaries handle eBook conversion, while metadata can be downloaded from several sources and extended through plugins.

It is for people who want browser-based access to their Calibre library. A responsive Bootstrap 3 interface, graphical setup, an admin area, and support for more than 20 interface languages help with setup and everyday use. For shared libraries, administrators can manage users with detailed permissions, limit downloads to signed-in users, allow public registration, and hide content by category or Custom Column values for each user. Authentication options include Magic Link access for e-readers, LDAP, Google or GitHub OAuth, and proxy authentication.
