What’s new

A better place for your reading life.

See what we've been up to!

  1. Keep books on a Private shelf

    Give textbooks, reference books, and other books you want to keep in your library a Private status. They stay available to you while remaining out of public profiles, recommendations, and public totals.

  2. Import highlights from Readwise

    Connect Readwise to bring your saved highlights and notes into MyBibliotheca, then match them to books in your library.

  3. Sync KOReader highlights and notes

    Send highlights and notes directly from KOReader to MyBibliotheca with the plugin, then link unmatched documents to books in your library.

  4. Sync reading progress with KOReader

    Connect KOReader devices to MyBibliotheca with a custom server, keep reading positions in sync, send document metadata for book matching, and link progress to your library.

  5. Share a portrait reading calendar

    Turn any month in your Reading Calendar into a polished 4:5 PNG with your activity, book covers, monthly totals, the MyBibliotheca logo, and a subtle MYBIBLIOTHECA.ORG footer.

  6. Look back with more meaning

    Year in Reading lets you explore monthly pace, finished books, formats, and the authors you returned to.

  7. A calmer, more readable dark mode

    Switch the entire app between light and dark themes, with the preference remembered on your device and controls, cards, forms, charts, and reading views tuned for contrast.

  8. Author alerts now live in MyBibliotheca

    When an author you follow has a genuinely new work, the alert appears in your in-app notification inbox with safeguards against duplicate editions and notification overload.

  9. Meet the Librarian

    Ask the Librarian for reading ideas in a private, in-place chat. Suggestions include covers and explanations, while daily usage limits and privacy disclosures keep the feature thoughtful and predictable.

  10. Make richer reading recaps

    Create yearly and weekly recap cards with more control over the books, stats, and designs you want to remember, then share them from your phone or save them as images.

  11. More reliable audiobook progress

    Logging listening time now advances audiobook progress even when you do not enter a current minute, making time-only sessions count toward the book you are reading.

  12. A smoother reading experience on small screens

    Reading data, library search, the PWA session flow, and authenticated pages now give mobile readers clearer loading feedback, larger type, and more resilient sessions when the network changes.

  13. Share your reading recap as a card

    Create a finished-book recap as a shareable image, choose an illustrated background, preview it, and share it from your phone or save it to your device.

  14. Discover indie authors in The Commons

    Browse independent authors and their books by genre or release date, with a rotating selection from the full catalogue. Authors can apply to claim or create a profile and, after approval, manage the books they share.

  15. See community ratings for each edition

    Book search and detail pages now show anonymous community rating averages grouped by ISBN, so scores reflect the specific edition.

  16. Plan what’s up next and track rereads

    Mark a book as Up next to keep it close at hand on your dashboard, and record dates for each time you reread a book.

  17. A more guided way to import your library

    Bring books over from Goodreads, StoryGraph, or another CSV with guided column mapping and a review step before anything is added.

  18. Scan an ISBN when adding a book

    Use your device’s camera to scan a book’s barcode and look up its edition without typing the ISBN.

  19. Richer author profiles

    Author pages now bring together biographies, photos, and catalogue information from Wikidata and Wikipedia, with a gentle progress state while new details are being gathered.

  20. Follow authors and explore their catalogues

    Search for shared author pages, follow the authors you love, and browse their latest and upcoming books from across MyBibliotheca.

  21. Track progress by reading format

    Track page progress for print books and ebooks, or minute and percentage progress for audiobooks, with support for audiobook durations and edition-specific positions.

  22. Organize books into series

    Group books into account-scoped series, add positions, and keep series context visible while browsing the books on your shelf.

  23. Track progress by percentage

    See how far you are through a book with percentage-complete progress, even when you do not want to enter a page number.

  24. Email streak reminders

    Opt in to a gentle email reminder when it has been a while since you logged a reading session.

  25. Bring your own cover

    Choose a cover you love when the available edition art is not quite right for your shelf.

  26. Keep better book details

    Book pages now make room for useful details like page counts, genres, and richer descriptions.

  27. Make a reading recap

    Create a shareable recap of your reading with books finished, pages read, minutes listened, and your streak.

  28. Install MyBibliotheca like an app

    Use the reading tracker from your home screen with the new installable app experience on supported devices.

  29. Share more of your reading life

    Public library pages can now optionally include ratings and reading streaks, while private notes and email stay private.

  30. Take your data with you

    Download an account data export when you want a copy of the reading life you have built here.

  31. Bring your library with you

    Import books, reading statuses, ratings, notes, and dates from a CSV export to get started more quickly.

  32. Choose a cover you prefer

    Search available edition covers and select the one that belongs on your shelf.
