Calibre Search - Search your local calibre library with ease
Calibre Search is a helpful Chrome add-on developed by kiwidude.calibre that allows users to search their local desktop calibre library using selected text or links. It is particularly useful for searching book titles and authors, although it can be used for any type of calibre library.
With Calibre Search, there is no longer a need for manual copy and paste. The add-on provides multiple options for searching, including a context menu, keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Q), and toolbar button. This makes it incredibly convenient to quickly search for books within your calibre library without leaving your current web page.
One of the standout features of Calibre Search is the ability to configure replace expressions. This allows users to strip out specific words or characters from the selected text before executing the search. For example, if a web page contains text like "Title by Author (Year)", users can configure the add-on to remove the "by" and "(...)" parts, resulting in a calibre search for "Title Author".
Calibre Search is a free add-on that simplifies the process of searching your local calibre library. Its intuitive interface and customizable search options make it a must-have tool for calibre users.
