BookOrbit
Consolidate your entire digital library into a self-hosted reading sanctuary with BookOrbit, an open-source media platform that organizes ebooks, audiobooks, comic archives, and research PDFs within a personal private cloud. Readers can enjoy multi-format media directly through responsive browser readers that support EPUB, CBZ, and M4B formats without external browser extensions. The platform synchronizes reading bookmarks, highlights, and completion statuses across web interfaces, Kobo ereaders, and KOReader devices. An automated metadata enrichment engine queries fourteen upstream bibliographic indexes, downloading cover artwork, chapter breakdowns, author biographies, and series taxonomies. The staging workspace allows librarians to inspect incoming files, review suggested metadata revisions, and embed updated tags directly into physical storage archives before shelving. Custom reading dashboards track annual book goals, calculate daily streaks, and plot reading habit radar charts. Multi-user configurations support distinct per-user collections, granular content permissions, and single sign-on authentication through OpenID Connect providers. Power users can export private OPDS feeds to external mobile reading applications or push books directly to connected Kindle hardware. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GNU AGPL v3.0 licensed.
