Table view

The table view lists books in rows and columns, which is quicker than covers for scanning a large library, comparing details, or selecting many books at once.

Switching views

The grid/table button in the toolbar switches between the two. Its icon shows the view you'll switch to.

Choosing columns

The eye button lists the columns; tick the ones you want. Your choice is remembered.

The column chooser

Columns: read status, title, authors, publisher, series and number, genres, published date, last read, date added, file name, file size, language, ISBN, ASIN, pages, and ratings and review counts from Amazon, Goodreads, Hardcover and RanobeDB.

Sorting

Click a column heading to sort by it, and again to reverse. The sort button in the toolbar works as in the grid view, for sorting by several fields.

Search and filters

The search box and the filter sidebar work exactly as in the grid view, including the AND, OR and NOT modes.
