@yaspora not on Open Library, but I do use Bookwyrm where I add missing books there, or missing info

[–] Dusty@lemmy.dustybeer.com 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is there a way to automatically sync bookwyrm to calibre or (shudder) goodreads? I have a kindle and having to remember to go in and add my new books or progress is a bit of a pain.

@Dusty there should be a plugin to Calibre somewhere maybe, I didn't try that out. I use to manually update the stuff.

I do not, I use the program from my local library but this seems like a great backup option. Thanks for bringing it up!

how does this work?

there are numerous "bestsellers" from a few years ago for free to read?
