Version 0.9.2 of the e-book reader and management software Calibre was announced on October 11th, marking an important milestone for this amazing software.

If you have an ebook reader, the Calibre software is a must. It does so many things for the avid reader, that it would take a lot of time to just enumerate all the features.

As usual, Calibre comes with a lot of new features, but a few others have also been removed in this version.

Highlights of Calibre 0.9.2:

• The speed of multiple books deletion, through the wireless function, has been increased substantially; • Options to hide the scrollbar and show reading position in full screen mode, has been added for the Ebook viewer; • A field has been added into News to allow recipe authors to tell Calibre to remove duplicate articles that are present in more than one section, from the download; • Users can now turn off the use of the published date, for the earliest edition a book. Metadata for the publish date was taken from worldcat.org, which has proven to be incorrect at times; • More workarounds for the image positioning markup produced by newer versions of LibreOffice have been implemented; • The selected cover was changed when covers were re-sorted after the download was completed. This bug was repaired; • Errors registered when getting the driveinfo.calibre file from the device, are now ignored; • The system locale settings, of the ebook viewer, has been set to display the 24/12 hour clock, in full screen mode; • A regression that caused Calibre to not use OPF files, when adding books recursively from directories with multiple books per directory, has been repaired; • The enumeration type custom column not being merged has been fixed.

A complete changelog can be found in the official announcement. You can also check out our review of Calibre.
