Does anyone know of a self hosting option for hosting ebooks? I keep hoping there is an open source library type app where I could add my ebooks and host them for myself and others.

      I believe you can, but I just copied the calibre books and database from my PC and run it from calibre-web without maintaining any link to calibre.

      It’s not perfect but it works well enough.

        I do it like this. Manage calibre on my PC, and copy the ‘Calibre Library’ contents to the server through ftp.

      That’s correct! I can share my docker-compose if that’s helpful. I’m on my phone, but I believe they just have to share a volume.
