Serious readers organize, convert, edit, and serve their e-book libraries with Calibre - the definitive open-source e-book manager. This deployment runs the full Calibre desktop application on your server, accessible from any browser, so your library lives in one authoritative place instead of scattered across devices. Its conversion engine is the best in the business, translating between every major format - EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, PDF, DOCX, and dozens more - with fine control over fonts, margins, metadata, and structure detection. Metadata management downloads covers, descriptions, series info, and identifiers from online sources, and every field is editable in bulk. Beyond cataloging, Calibre includes a full e-book editor for EPUB and AZW3 internals, a news engine that fetches newspapers and magazines from the web on schedule and converts them into e-books, book comparison tools, and device syncing that sends the right format to each connected reader. The built-in content server exposes your library over HTTP so phones, tablets, and e-readers can browse and download remotely. A deep plugin ecosystem extends everything - metadata sources, format support, store integrations. For power users, the complete CLI (calibredb, ebook-convert) enables scripted library automation. Your books, your metadata, your server - permanent and DRM-free storage under your control.

BookLore centralizes personal electronic book, audiobook, and comic collections into an organized private media server equipped with automated metadata scrapers and e-reader synchronization. Users can drop EPUB, PDF, CBZ, and MOBI files into a watched BookDrop directory to trigger automated format parsing, background cover retrieval, and staged queue imports. Integrated metadata scrapers query Google Books, Open Library, Goodreads, and Amazon to automatically fill synopsis summaries, author records, publishing dates, and review scores. Dynamic Magic Shelves categorize volumes through custom rule-based filters, author collections, and full-text search indexes across your complete literature catalog. The browser-based reader renders documents with adjustable typography, night modes, audio playback controls, text annotations, and persistent bookmarking. Hardware e-readers and mobile devices connect through native Kobo Store emulation APIs, bidirectional KOReader progress synchronization, and OPDS catalog feeds. Multi-tenant permissions provide each household member with private reading statistics, personalized shelves, email book delivery, and direct send-to-Kindle dispatch.

Manga, comics, ebooks, and light novels get a streaming-service-style home in Kavita - a fast, cross-platform reading server for the DRM-free collection you share with family and friends. It natively serves CBZ, CBR, CB7, ZIP/RAR/7z archives, raw images, EPUB, and PDF, with hand-crafted web readers per format: webtoon scrolling, single and dual-page spreads with advanced caching for the comic reader, and a book reader with adjustable fonts, spacing, margins, color themes, and column modes. Reading progress tracks per user, so everyone resumes exactly where they stopped on any device. Metadata parses from filenames, ComicInfo.xml, and EPUB fields, feeding index-backed search, smart filters, collections, reading lists with CBL import, and Want to Read queues. Role-based user management covers age restrictions, per-library access, and OIDC authentication. An OPDS feed connects third-party clients - Panels on iOS, Librera on Android, KOReader on e-ink devices - and a comprehensive REST API supports custom integrations. EPUB annotation and highlight support, custom theming, and full localization round it out. Built with .NET and Angular, it handles 50,000+ file libraries without strain; optional Kavita+ adds AniList scrobbling, recommendations, and external metadata.

With over 17,700 GitHub stars and continuous development since 2015, Calibre-Web has become the definitive self-hosted digital library solution for book enthusiasts who want beautiful web access to their Calibre collections. The responsive Bootstrap 3 interface delivers instant browsing, searching, and filtering across titles, authors, tags, series, book formats, and languages, with custom shelves for organizing personal reading collections. In-browser reading supports EPUB, PDF, TXT, CBR, CBT, CBZ, and DJVU formats with a configurable EPUB reader featuring multiple themes and page location tracking, while one-click email delivery sends books directly to Kindle, Kobo, and other E-Readers without leaving the interface. Native Kobo sync lets Kobo device owners synchronize their entire Calibre library wirelessly, maintaining reading progress and bookmarks across devices. Metadata management includes editing capabilities with automatic metadata downloading from Google Books, Amazon, and other configurable sources, plus eBook format conversion through Calibre binaries for on-the-fly EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, and PDF conversion. User management provides fine-grained per-user permissions controlling download access, upload rights, editing capabilities, and content visibility based on categories or Custom Column values. Authentication supports local accounts, LDAP directory integration, Google and GitHub OAuth, proxy authentication, and Magic Link login for easy E-Reader access. The OPDS catalog feed enables any compliant E-Reader app to browse and download from the library.

Websites such as Wikipedia, Project Gutenberg, and Stack Overflow pack into single ZIM files, and Kiwix Serve publishes a folder of them as a searchable library that opens in any browser, with no connection to the originals. Point it at individual files, a directory, or a library file, and visitors get a welcome page where they filter books by language, category, or words in the title and description. Each book opens in a built-in viewer without downloading the archive, with toolbar buttons for the library, a random article, and in-book search. Title suggestions appear as you type, and full-text search returns highlighted snippets from indexed books, across several at once when they share a language. OPDS catalogs let reader apps browse and fetch the collection, and the library reloads automatically when its file changes. Admins can swap in a custom welcome page, publish under a URL prefix, hide the library button or search box, block links that leave the archive, and cap connections per visitor. Interface translations cover dozens of languages. Universities, community networks, and home labs get a reference shelf that stays available when the original sites are slow, blocked, or gone, with developer documentation and Q&A always within reach.

A folder of loose audiobook chapters goes in; a single, perfectly tagged m4b library comes out. Bragibooks is the operations board for that transformation: you select a batch of audiobook folders from your server, and it searches AudiobookDB to match each one with the right title, author, narrator, and release, with a custom search on hand when the first match is wrong. Confirmed books enter a processing queue where m4b-merge merges split mp3, m4a, and m4b parts, converts formats, strips stale metadata, and writes clean, consistently tagged files while you watch the live job output in your browser. Saved output profiles let you route different batches to different directories or path formats, and the books library keeps every finished title with its metadata, files, and processing history a click away. The whole thing runs as one container with the interface built in, a SQLite database on a mounted config volume, and access restricted to your local network by default, with an optional API key for external tools. Audiobook collectors use it to tame download folders before importing into their player of choice, and hoarders of split-chapter rips finally get uniform Chapter 01 style files. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

Peach is a self-hosted video library manager that scrapes rich metadata for your own collection and serves it through a polished web player you can open on any device. Point it at local drives, SMB shares, mounted cloud storage, or a PikPak library and it scans everything into one browsable catalog without moving or modifying your files. The scraper recognizes video codes, reads existing NFO files, and fills in titles, performers, studios, and cover art from multiple sources while always preserving corrections you make by hand. Playback happens right in the browser with subtitle support, variable speed, rotation, resume points, and timeline previews you can scrub through before committing to a scene. A follow system tracks performers and creators so new releases surface automatically, and the discovery views plus a want list help you decide what to add next. When something is missing, search by video code or drop in a magnet link and completed downloads are filed into the library on their own. Tagging, duplicate detection, and multi-version grouping keep large collections tidy, while the task center lets you pause, resume, or cancel scans and downloads and watch their resource use as they run. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0-or-later licensed.

Circulation desk, cataloging workbench, acquisitions office, serials room, and public catalog all share one roof in Koha, an open-source library system that scales across school libraries, branch networks, and consortia. Staff search the catalog with facets for availability, authors, holding libraries, and item types, then open a record to see its cover, subjects, classification numbers, and every copy with its call number, status, and barcode. Catalogers edit MARC 21 or UNIMARC records field by field, copy records in via Z39.50 and SRU searches, and link authorities automatically. At the desk, staff check out, check in, and renew items, work with holds, bookings, and claims, and see overdue warnings and outstanding charges beside each patron. Circulation and fine rules vary by library, patron category, and item type. Acquisitions handles vendors, baskets, budgets, and funds. Serials track subscriptions and issue receiving. A guided report wizard, SQL reports, and statistics wizards summarize circulation and collections. Patrons search the public catalog, place holds, save lists, tag and rate titles, and suggest purchases. Staff tools design notices and slips, print patron cards, set holiday calendars, and import or batch-edit patrons. SIP2 serves self-checkout kiosks, OAI-PMH sets share records, and a REST API exposes patrons, holds, checkouts, and biblios. Lending continues during outages with offline circulation.

Why split your entertainment life across half a dozen siloed apps when Floppy tracks every movie, television episode, anime season, book, comic, video game, board game, album, and podcast in one unified self-hosted library? A configurable home dashboard shows exactly how much runtime remains in your current shows alongside personalized recommendation rows driven by your genre, studio, cast, and tag history. Music and podcasts are first-class citizens backed by MusicBrainz discography metadata, track-level scoring, Last.fm scrobble polling, and live Pocket Casts episode synchronization. Collectors can catalog physical and digital media ownership down to the exact disc format, video resolution, HDR standard, audio codec, and bitrate, complete with automated Plex collection syncing. Live webhooks and scheduled jobs connect directly to Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, Audiobookshelf, Sonarr, Radarr, and Seerr so watches, listens, and library additions log themselves automatically. You can curate public or private lists with programmable smart-list rules, RSS and JSON feeds, Trakt watchlist imports, and barcode ISBN scanning for physical books. Recap-style statistics let you compare custom date ranges across reading streaks, pages read, listening hours, and top actors or authors, while a REST API and built-in Model Context Protocol server power custom automations.

Reloops is a self-hosted creative asset workspace where teams keep every video, design, PDF, audio file, and live website in one library and collect feedback on the files themselves instead of in scattered email threads. Reviewers click anywhere on an image to pin a note to that exact spot, and on video the comments attach to the precise frame, so "fix this bit" always points at the bit in question. Every upload becomes a new version on the same asset, older cuts stay available for side-by-side comparison, and approvals are recorded on the file so nobody ships the wrong export by accident. Clients never need an account: send them a share link or a branded collection and they can watch, comment, and sign off as guests. The library searches the way people remember work, because each asset carries generated descriptions, tags, and metadata filters, so "the approved homepage with the blue button" actually finds something. Day to day, assignments and review queues keep feedback moving, while scoped API keys let agents such as Claude, OpenClaw, Zapier, and n8n upload new versions, post comments, update statuses, and manage share links inside the same workspace. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Your next favorite record is hiding in your listening history, and Digarr is the self-hosted discovery engine that finds it, scores it, and queues it for your library. Connect ListenBrainz, Last.fm, Spotify, Deezer, Discogs, or your Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, or Subsonic server, and Digarr builds a taste profile from what you actually play. An AI provider you choose, from Anthropic, OpenAI, and Gemini to a local Ollama model, proposes candidates, and a weighted scoring system ranks them by consensus, similarity, genre overlap, and your past feedback. Every suggestion lands in a review queue where you can preview tracks, approve, reject, or permanently block artists before anything touches your collection. Approve an artist and Digarr adds them to Lidarr with your quality profile, queues the release in slskd, or exports a playlist to Spotify, Navidrome, Jellyfin, Emby, or Plex. Album-level discovery runs on its own: Release Radar catches new releases from artists you follow, Library Gap-Fill surfaces the studio albums you are missing, and scheduled subscriptions keep fresh candidates flowing in without you lifting a finger. Share the instance with family or friends, each with their own queue and connections, protected by local accounts or OIDC single sign-on, and get notified through webhooks, ntfy, Telegram, or Apprise when new picks arrive.

Turn any chaotic digital book archive into an autonomous, self-organizing reading portal using Calibre-Web Automated, a digital library manager featuring hands-free format conversions, metadata fetching, and e-reader synchronization. Readers can drop raw ebook files into the automated intake directory and watch the system instantly convert between twenty-eight distinct file types, repair malformed EPUB internal markup, and fetch enriched metadata from Hardcover, Kobo, and ISBN databases. The responsive web reader lets you browse collections, read directly in any desktop or mobile browser, and organize titles into dynamic rules-based Magic Shelves that update automatically. Built-in KOReader sync harmonizes reading progress and bookmarks across mobile devices and e-ink readers, while native OPDS feeds connect seamlessly to your favorite external reader applications. Administrative tools empower you to run hybrid SQL and fuzzy duplicate detection scans, perform batch metadata editing across entire series, enforce cover art changes directly into source files, and auto-dispatch newly ingested books to Kindle or Kobo devices via scheduled email delivery. Granular multi-user controls allow administrators to assign folder permissions, restrict downloads, enforce dark mode themes, and authenticate readers securely through OAuth and OpenID Connect identity providers.

Manga collections tend to get trapped on a single phone; Suwayomi moves the library, downloads, and reading progress onto a server you run, so every browser and device sees the same shelf. In the browser, a built-in reader handles single page, double page, continuous vertical, continuous horizontal, and webtoon layouts, adding image filters, custom keybinds, auto scrolling, and separate desktop and mobile views. Content comes from Mihon (Tachiyomi) extensions, which can be searched, browsed, and sorted into categories, with custom extension stores loaded from JSON or Protobuf indexes. Downloads save chapters as CBZ archives for offline reading, and the server checks the library for new chapters every 12 hours by default, fetching them automatically if you allow it. Progress follows you through MyAnimeList, AniList, and MangaUpdates, a Suwayomi extension and tracker for Mihon, SyncYomi servers, and KOReader. E-reader apps connect over OPDS feeds, scheduled Mihon-compatible backups protect the library, and FlareSolverr or Byparr support handles Cloudflare-protected sources. Public instances can be locked down with basic authentication, a simple login page, or JWT-based UI login, and a PostgreSQL backend, still in beta, can replace the default file store.

Comic Library Utilities (CLU) is a self-hosted comic library manager that converts, repairs, tags, downloads, and reads your entire comic collection from one web interface. Convert whole folders or libraries from CBR to CBZ in bulk, turn PDFs into CBZ with JPEG or WebP output, and rename thousands of files to one consistent pattern without touching a terminal. Open any CBZ in the browser editor to reorder pages, add or delete images, crop covers, split merged multi issue archives, and adjust contrast and brightness issue by issue. Write ComicInfo.xml from Metron, ComicVine, Grand Comics Database, AniList, MangaDex, MangaUpdates, or Bedetheque, then bulk apply tags across a directory with review before saving and a history log that can revert any change. Browse your library by publisher, series, or folder, read page by page in the built in reader that remembers your place, and follow weekly release calendars with a pull list and Wanted tracker for issues you do not own yet. Download new issues from Direct Download sources, Usenet through Newznab indexers with SABnzbd or NZBGet, and DC++, while folder monitoring unpacks, converts, renames, and files new arrivals automatically. Add Reader, Clerk, and Store Owner accounts with per folder permissions, publish OPDS feeds for reader apps, and sync reading history with Komga.

When the connection drops, Project NOMAD keeps serving offline Wikipedia, Khan Academy courses, maps, and an optional private AI assistant from a single Debian-based Linux server. The core needs only about 5 GB of disk and under 1 GB of RAM. Content is what fills the drive, and a setup wizard sorts it into Essential, Standard, and Comprehensive tiers while a storage bar tracks the running total. Wikipedia runs from a quick-reference set of the top 100,000 articles to the complete English edition with images at about 121 GB, and Kiwix also serves medical references, survival and repair guides, and Project Gutenberg ebooks. Kolibri adds Khan Academy courses with multi-user progress tracking, and any browser on the network can study. Offline maps cover the whole globe, single countries, or regions, with markers you can search, color, and navigate to by coordinate. The AI assistant is the heavy part, bringing the install to roughly 25 GB. It chats through Ollama or any OpenAI-compatible server such as LM Studio, searches uploaded documents, lists sources with dates when known, and lets vision models read attached images. CyberChef handles encoding and hashing, and FlatNotes keeps Markdown notes. The Supply Depot adds one-click apps or your own Docker containers. Opt-in auto-updates for the Command Center, installed apps, and downloaded content run inside a window you set.

Shelfarr is the request button your book library was missing: anyone in your household can search millions of ebooks and audiobooks, request the format they want, and let automation fetch and shelve it. Discovery searches Open Library, Hardcover, and Google Books with covers, series, editions, and narrator details, so picking between the ebook and the audiobook takes a glance. Hardcover shelves and public reading lists can be previewed and requested, and following an author means their next release surfaces without a manual search. Requests wait for an admin's approval or move straight to searching, where your indexers are queried and every result is scored against your preferred formats, bitrate, and language. The winning release goes to the download client you route it to; finished files are renamed with your templates and delivered into your library's watched folders, which are told to rescan. Nothing found is not the end: searches retry with back-off and flag the request for attention instead of losing it. Family members get their own accounts with roles, two-factor authentication or single sign-on, notifications in the app or on Discord and Telegram, and admins keep manual uploads, API tokens, and download routing under their control.

When a music library is full of wrong tags, missing covers, and blank ratings, Tagr lets you fix the whole collection from any browser, on desktop or phone. Three roles divide the work on your own server. Admins mount a music folder, press scan, and get a searchable table of every track, with sortable and filterable columns, more than 40 editable fields, and room for custom tags. Taggers make the changes: edit fields inline, swap album art, and match one song or a whole selection against MusicBrainz, ticking which fields to overwrite. Mistakes are cheap, because every edit is stored in a persistent change history with a revert action, viewable per song or per folder. Rule-based smart playlists, such as every track with an empty comment, show what still needs attention. Listeners browse and play without edit rights, using the waveform player, a Recently played view, and optional ListenBrainz scrobbling that each person connects to their own account. Supported formats include MP3, FLAC, WAV, AAC, OGG, M4A, M4B, WMA, AIFF, and Opus, with changes written straight back into the files. Swipe-friendly panels, an installable PWA, and five interface languages make the phone a comfortable place to work.

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.
