But most of the times manuals/howto books about beer, fermenting, computers .. reference guides.

We used to have a lot of books, but when Monique moved out she took a lot with her. And i’ve got a lot of digital versions of books now. We needed the space, so i got rid of the paper ones.

I’m using Calibre and Calibre in server mode, to access my ebooks and comics.

I use fbreader a lot and sometimes the calibre webreader.
My tunebooks are in there also, and i’m using my DIY bluetooth pageflipper to flip though the pages. (Other post)

Calibre in server mode

 ./calibre-server --userdb /home/fash/calibreusers.sqlite  /tank/Calibre/library /tank/Calibre/adult /tank/Calibre/sortedlibrary /tank/Calibre/comics /tank/Calibre/computer /tank/Calibre/manuals /tank/Calibre/PdfMusic /tank/Calibre/Nasla
g --port=8008 --enable-auth --auth-mode 'basic'

# To manage users
# calibre-server --userdb /srv/calibre/users.sqlite --manage-users

# Server is behind a reverse proxy
