eKitaab is an eBook Catalog Manager to manage large collections of ebooks. eKitaab is not a eBook reader.
eKitaab displays a list of all books you have, with their titles, authors, description and a photo of the book covers. It also shows if you have read that book before or not (for multiple users as well in case you have more book lovers in your house/group). eKitaab downloads all this information from the Internet, based on the ISBN of the book, or by searching by author or title.
eKitaab is designed to be extremely safe for the eBooks... the eBooks themselves are never changed. eKitaab stores basic information about the book by changing the filename to include the title, author and ISBN. The other information is downloaded from the Internet and not stored locally (but caching is implemented, to reduce repeated downloads).
Main features:
- No proprietary format, no database
- Since the filename themselves contain the ISBN, all other details can be downloaded at view-time (this is cached)
- If you send this file to someone else with eKitaab, they can import this file into their copy with any retagging.
- If you want to use another eBook manager software in the future, there is no constraint of data export.

New Features:

- Opening ebooks for reading in the default viewer based on OS settings

Whats New in 0.6 RC2 Development Release:
- Fixed default fonts in the bottom pane.
- Optimised the tagging code, now the authors pane does not refresh every time you add or remove a tag or reading list.

OpenBerg Reader is an open-standards-based, multi-platform eBook reader.
The objective of the OpenBerg project is to design and implement open-source tools for the creation, edition and usage of open-standard eBooks.
We are currently developing the OpenBerg reader, an advanced eBook reader based on Mozilla technologies. This reader will allow, among other features, rich eBook contents, semantical find facilities and reader annotations, in a multi-language environment.
This program is developed Linux and Windows, using cross-platform technologies available for Linux, Windows, MacOS X, OpenBSD, FreeBSD... If you wish to contribute or donate, do not hesitate to contact us. We need developers and beta-testers on all these platforms, as well as package, website and documentation maintainers. Soon, hopefully, we will also need help with translation. Last but not least, we need help to spread the word.
Enhancements:
- This release is the first in a new generation of OpenBerg Reader / Lector.
- It enriches Firefox with the ability to read several formats of e-Books, while using all the usual features of Firefox, including printing, bookmarking, following hyperlinks, zooming in or out, copying or exporting parts of the book, etc.
- With the right (existing) Firefox extensions, you can even take yellow-sticker-notes on e-Books, add and share comments on chapters, have your book read out to you, etc.
