pyELib is a free open source system to create and manage any collection of eBooks.

Unlike other eBooks management softwares, pyELib doesn't need the user to input neither titles nor ISBNs, since it automatically analyzes the files and searches for details on the internet. Dupes and different editions are properly handled. Each book is then automatically associated to one or more category (through machine learning) and, if desired, renamed.

The library is stored in a MySQL database and comes with an interface for easier management.
