Ask HN: How to you administer your collection of papers/e-books?
3 points by neodypsis on Sept 16, 2022 | hide | past | favorite | 7 comments
What software do you use for managing your library of papers and e-books (mainly PDFs)?


I found Zotero to be a nice way to organize large numbers of papers. But their mobile story was a bit lacking as of a few years ago.


Thank you. Exactly what I was looking for!


I use Calibre [0] for ebooks, and PDFs are just in a file on the desktop. I supose you could put them into calibre, but reading papers on an eink reader doesn't sound idea.

[0] - https://calibre-ebook.com/


Thank you, looks nice. Is it mainly for e-books, though?


Calibre for e-books.


+1 for Calibre


I use a "heap" data structure :-)
