Mybookshelf2 is next generation solution for sharing and managing ebooks for personal or community purposes. It’s fully web based written in Python and Javascript. Basically it is a complete rewrite of my old project Mybookshelf (with completely new technologies)

The key focus is on:

• enabling different files for an ebook – event same formats multiple times (that was one of my key issues with Calibre, because it enables only one file per format).
• Easy way to convert ebook to needed format (event from doc files) from selected file. Mass conversion of all ebooks of given author, all ebooks in series, bookshelf.
• Easy way to upload file to new or existing ebook (use metadata in file, auto-completes to add authors, series …) .
• Accessible from any device, responsive design (at least for read – Ebooks readers usually have fairly basic web browsers, so simple pages should be available for ebooks listing and download in such devices).
• Easy and intuitive organization of ebooks using ‘bookshelves’ ( a list of books) –  you can have as many bookshelves as needed – ( like Want to read,  Top 100 books, Recommended to me, …)
