BookOrbit is a self-hosted, Docker-native library and reading platform for ebooks, PDFs, comics, and audiobooks. It provides multi-user library management, metadata automation, built-in readers, Kobo/KOReader sync, OPDS catalogs, and reading analytics on infrastructure you control.
Use cases
- self-host my ebook and audiobook library
- read epub and pdf books in the browser with progress sync
- sync reading progress with my Kobo or KOReader
- manage book metadata automatically from multiple providers
- share a multi-user digital library with per-user permissions and SSO
- serve an OPDS catalog to my reader apps
- track reading stats, streaks, and goals
- send books to my Kindle via email
When to choose
- you want a private, self-hosted alternative to cloud book services with no subscription
- you need multi-user libraries with OIDC/SSO and granular permissions
- you read across devices (web, Kobo, KOReader) and want progress sync
- you want built-in readers for EPUB, PDF, comics, and audiobooks plus OPDS delivery
When to avoid
- you only want a lightweight single-user ebook reader without server infrastructure
- you need DRM-protected store books rather than your own files
- you cannot run Docker on your host
