Hi fellow hosters! I really did not know where to ask this question - and i thought you lot are pretty similar to me. If you can think of somewhere else to post this, please let me know!

I am looking for a solution to be able to host my own books (something like calibre i guess), that i can easily push them to a yet-to-be-purchased eReader.

Firstly - What eReader are you using that allows you to add any number of book sources to? i would also like to include my local library subscription, as well as locally hosted and purchased ones.

Secondly - Any hints on hosting a book collection. (Readarr v calibre, etc), where you get books from, removing DRM from eBooks that you buy, that sort of stuff.

thanks!
