I just built and installed Calibre on a Slackware-14.2 host. It has a
bunch of dependencies (about 20) so it took a while.
Seeking to take it for a test drive I logged in to my MCL account and
found an eBook. When I tried to 'borrow' it I had to enter my library card
number and password again, but the page told me it was not a valid card
number. Strange, since it's been working for a very long time. I'll send a
message to the library's back room asking about this.
In the meantime, Calibre seems to be quite comprehensive with a large
number of input and output formats available.
HTH,
Rich
