Suggestions & Problems

[justjeff]

P.S. I was able to gather some more materials from friends... may I send them to you for as contribution to the collection of sound Catholic materials?

(There are also various books of cultural worth, but most of them are specifically concerned with understanding, living, and propagating the Faith.)

Here is a link to the cloud storage where I've transferred them... I hope these may help many more souls! Again, thank you so much for all your kind work.

Perhaps this is old news, but it looks like the libgen site was seized by the feds. Hopefully my browser didn't provide them with a referrer link.

It also looks like the google books link is no longer valid.

I don't remember what palisadehealer had in that Google Drive link anyways.

Their search engine has a selection of sites that they peruse, but Isidore.co is not one of them.

LibGen already has most of the books from the Isidore.co library. Isidore.co is 6,192 books. It's tiny compared to shadow libraries' collections like Anna's Archive's 43,206,948 books.

Sorry, I should have spelled my question out better. It started on the subject line, so it was unclear. I have added the following edit in blue: to that original post to hopefully clear things up a bit:

Their search engine has a selection of sites that they peruse, but Isidore.co is not one of them. I suppose that is hardwired in, but I am no power user of Calibre. Perhaps there is an option to add your site to their list, or maybe there is a plug in or extension that would do so?

added via edit: I use Calibre for my home library as well and it has an option to search the internet for books via an icon labeled "get books". It has a variety of sources that can be searched, such as Amazon, Kobo, Project Gutenberg & numerous others. Unfortunately, Isidore.co is not one of those options. I am wondering, if there is a way to add Isidore.co to those options so that if I come across a reference to a book I could do the search across multiple online platforms at once, including Isidore? Ideally, there is some way to manually add websites to their search engine database, but if not, perhaps there is already an extension that someone is aware of that could add St. Isidore &/or other sites?

Oh, you want to add a store to Calibre for the Isidore.co library?
There is an OPDS feed: https://isidore.co/calibre/opds/navcatalog/4f6e6577657374
And the OPDS Client plugin that allows importing books from OPDS feeds.

But I think you'd like an "Isidore.co Store" made. They're basically plugins.
