Library workflow
From loose files to a usable ebook library
Bookerei is built for the middle ground between a basic file viewer and a heavyweight catalog system: enough structure to keep a growing collection useful, without turning reading into database maintenance.
Clean up covers and metadata
Fetch book information from the web, review matches, and edit covers, descriptions, authors, series, and tags.
Organize shelves visually
Create shelves for genres, research topics, authors, projects, or current reads, then add shelf images for easier browsing.
Find books fast
Search your ebook library by title, author, series, tags, and descriptions when the collection is too large to remember.
eBook organizer
A visual organizer for readers who keep coming back
Folders are fine for storage, but they are not always enough for reading. Bookerei gives you a place to track what a book is, where it belongs, what you noted, and how far you got.
- Organize books by shelf, series, author, tag, or reading status
- Keep notes, bookmarks, colored highlights, and progress with each book
- Keep the library in a local folder you choose and control
One ebook library across computers
Share the library folder while Bookerei stays local
Bookerei does not operate a cloud storage service. To use the same library on multiple computers, keep its local folder inside a location synchronized by OneDrive, Dropbox, iCloud Drive, Google Drive, or another desktop sync provider.
You choose the folder
The library remains a normal folder on each computer instead of being moved into a Bookerei account.
Your provider copies it
The desktop sync service you already use transfers changes between the computers you connect.
Bookerei opens it locally
Select the synchronized local folder in Bookerei on each computer and let the provider finish before switching machines.
Where it fits
Choose Bookerei when reading and organization matter most

As a PDF library manager

eBook library manager FAQ
What is Bookerei best at?

Can Bookerei organize both EPUB and PDF files?
Yes. Bookerei can read and organize EPUB and PDF files in the same library.
Does Bookerei store my ebook library online?
No. Bookerei does not upload or host your library. It reads a local folder on your computer. You can choose to place that folder inside a third-party desktop sync service when you want to use it on more than one computer.
Can I use the same Bookerei library on Windows and macOS?
Yes. Keep the library in a synchronized folder that is available locally on both computers, wait for your sync provider to finish, and select that local folder in Bookerei on Windows and macOS.
Is Bookerei a Calibre alternative?
Bookerei can be a simpler Calibre alternative for readers who mainly want reading, shelves, search, notes, highlights, metadata, and a calm interface. Calibre remains a broader tool for advanced conversion and device workflows.
