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!

    I got a remarkable way back in grad school when it was the only real option for full size reader that could handle PDFs so I could use it to read and annotate scientific papers which don't handle conversion well. Now there's a bunch of products that can do it. But for the remarkable 1 at least, you upload books into the remarkable app and it'll auto download onto the device over wifi, so no need to plug it in. However, everything goes through the remarkable server so defeats the underlying principles of self hosting lol
