Calibre Tags to Kindle Collections?

Bibliophile · Jun 30, 2010

Hello everyone,

Here's a technical question for you. I've got about 350 +/- books on my Kindle. Since upgrading to 2.5.2, I've been busy grouping my books into various collections, but grew weary of the long, slow process. When playing with Calibre 0.7.6 the other day, it occurred to me that, if I could somehow convert the tagged entries for each book into Kindle categories, my headache would vanish. I've spent a few hours Googling, testing various methods, etc. - with no success. Can this be done, or is manual management of collections on the Kindle the only way to do this?

Thanks for any help you can give...

I just hope (and expect) that it's an optional feature when and if it arrives. I tag my books in Calibre MUCH differently than I organize them on the Kindle.

Well, a bit more Googling yielded this answer:

In summary, according to the software author, not yet.
