Calibre Team heeft de weekelijkse update van zijn opensource e-book-managementprogramma Calibre uitgebracht. Calibre kan overweg met bijna alle soorten e-books en e-readers en maakt het onder andere mogelijk om e-books te converteren tussen de diverse formaten om ze op deze manier beschikbaar te maken voor alle platforms. Daarnaast kan het ook nieuwsartikelen op basis van RSS omzetten naar e-bookformaat en op deze manier nieuws beschikbaar maken op e-readers. In Calibre 0.8.2 zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen doorgevoerd:
New FeaturesBug Fixes
- Various new ebook sources added to Get Books: Google Books, O'Reilly, archive.org, some Polish ebooks stores, etc.
- Amazon metadata download: Allow user to configure Amazon plugin to use any of the US, UK, German, French and Italian Amazon websites
- When deleting large numbers of books, give the user the option to skip the Recycle Bin, since sending lots of files to the recycle bin can be very slow.
