Libra 2 Transfer of library of books

[davidrichards27]

Hi Guys!
I have had my Libra2 for a couple of years now and suffice to say I have 'lots' (a few thousand)of books, many, many sideloaded and organised into lots of collections.

I am going to be upgrading to a Libra Colrour soon and I am wondering if there is a simple way to just mirror my existing collections straight onto the new reader without having to replicate every collection manually?

Any ideas gratefully received

Thanks a lot

It's not an upgrade to a Libra Colour if these books are just text. For B&W text, the Libra Colour is about 20-30% darker then the Libra 2.

Do you have all of these eBooks in calibre?

If you do, it's an easy solution. You would need to use Kobo Utilities to pull in your reading positions. Also use Reading List to mark which books are on your Libra 2. You will need to configure some custom columns for this.

You can then put all of those eBooks on your Libra Colour, and push the reading positions.

You will lose any annotations.
