Version 0.8.69 of the e-book reader and management software Calibre was announced on September 14th, with some important new features and fixes.

Highlights of Calibre 0.8.69:

• Users can now single out books from the failed metadata download and process them individually;
• The last used window size of the conversion dialogs is now kept;
