Time for a Come to Jeebus moment: I will never get along with #calibre ebook management.
It's an incredible, capable, venerable piece of software, and my partially blind ass just continuously gets gut punched by its interface hard and often enough that I spent a chunk of this evening picking apart the broken bits of 5 separate Calibre libraries I've tried to maintain over time. All failed.
So, I now have a sanely curated set of named folders on my NAS for ebooks:

Sometimes (often?) a nicely arranged #UNIX filesystem is chefs kiss perfect!

Years ago I set up a Calibre here at home. I revisited this about 2 weeks ago.
