However, this results in a lot of python error messages: Okay, so now I’ve got a library_id and I attempt to put it into a command: calibredb add /path-to-books/to-add-to-library/cookbooks/* -with-library ‘ -username MyUser -password MyPass

Looking at the manual page for calibredb, I got a listing for the library_id for each of the libraries on the content server: calibredb -with-library ‘ list -username MyUser -password MyPass I think I’m close, but have a syntax issue. So, I’m currently trying to figure out how. It seems, according to the messages I’ve seen and the manual that calibredb can do this. However, I’d like to be able to add books to the server without stopping the server then restarting it afterwards. I can stop the calibre-server, then use calibredb to add books to a library as desired, then restart the calibre-server. I can see, and read books from the web interface, as well as update metadata (once I enabled -with-auth). This is the version that’s available from the repos for arm64
