calibre is a free and open source e-book library management application developed by users of e-books for users of e-books.

Changelog:

New Features
* New unified toolbar
"A new unified toolbar combines the old toolbar and device display, to save space. Now when a device is connected, buttons are created in the unified toolbar for the device and its storage cards. Click the arrow next to the button to eject the device."
* Device drivers: Add option to allow calibre to automatically manage metadata on the device in Preferences->Add/Save->Sending to device
* BibTeX output for catalogs. The list of books in calibre can now also be output as a .bib file
* A new toolbar button to choose/create different calibre libraries. Be careful using it if you also use custom columns.
* Support for the MiBuk
