Download Caliber 0.9.28

Last week lead developer Kovid Goyal was on a trip, but this Friday a new version of Caliber is ready for you. Caliber is an open source and cross platform ebook management program. Among other things, it can look up all relevant information and cover images and convert ebooks to make them suitable for the various types of e-readers. It can also convert newspapers, magazines and news articles based on RSS feeds into e-book format, and books can be purchased from well-known web stores. A new version is released every Friday and the changelog for version 0.9.28 looks like this:

New Features

• Virtual Libraries: Easily partition your large caliber library into smaller ‘virtual’ libraries
  A virtual library is a way to tell caliber to open only a subset of a normal library. For example, you might want to only work with books by a certain author, or books having only a certain tag. To use this feature, click the button labeled ‘Virtual Library’ to the left of the search bar. For details, see This feature used to be called ‘Search restriction’, the new virtual libraries are easier to use, but otherwise fulfill the same function.
