Library Management
* Calibre manages your e-book collection for you. It is designed around the concept of the logical book, i.e., a single entry in your library that may correspond to actual e-book files in several formats.
* Virtual Libraries: Easily partition your large calibre library into smaller 'virtual' libraries
* Calibre can sort the books in your library by: Title, Author, Date added, Date published, Size, Rating, Series, etc.
* In addition, it supports extra searchable metadata:
* o Tags: A flexible system for categorizing your collection however you like
* o Comments: A long form entry that you can use for book description, notes, reviews, etc.
* You can easily search your book collection for a particular book. calibre supports searching any and all of the fields mentioned above. You can construct advanced search queries by clicking the helpful "Advanced search" button to the left of the search bar.
* You can export arbitrary subsets of your collection to your hard disk arranged in a fully customizable folder structure.
* Finally, calibre will even go out onto the internet to find book metadata based on existing title/author or ISBN information. It can download various types of metadata and covers for your books, automatically. The metadata system is written using plugins so that different types of metadata sources can be supported in the future.

Tools:
* "Edit ToC" that allows you to edit or create a Table of Contents easily in EPUB or AZW3 ebooks.
* "Polish books" that allows you to perform various automated cleanup actions on EPUB and AZW3 files without doing a full conversion.

It can automatically detect/create book structure, like chapters and Table of Contents. It can insert the book metadata into a "Book Jacket" at the start of the book.

Syncing to e-book reader devices
* Calibre has a modular device driver design that makes adding support for different e-reader devices easy. At the moment, it has support for a large number of devices, the complete list of which is here.
* Syncing supports updating metadata on the device from metadata in the library and creation of collections on the device based on the tags defined in the library.
