Shelfmark is a self-hosted web application for searching and requesting books and audiobooks across multiple configurable sources such as web, torrent, usenet, and IRC. It provides a unified download queue, multi-user request workflows, and automatic import into library tools like Calibre-Web and Audiobookshelf.
Use cases
- search and download ebooks from multiple sources in one place
- self-hosted audiobook search and download tool
- let family or friends request books through a shared web UI
- automatically import downloaded books into Calibre-Web
- manage a download queue with real-time progress
- integrate book metadata from Hardcover, Open Library, and Google Books
When to choose
- you run a self-hosted ebook or audiobook library and want automated acquisition
- you need a multi-user request/approval system for book downloads
- you want one interface aggregating torrent, usenet, IRC, and web sources
- you use Calibre, Calibre-Web, or Audiobookshelf and want automatic imports
When to avoid
- you need a fully managed cloud service rather than a Docker self-hosted app
- you want active feature development - the project is feature-stable and maintained best-effort
- you cannot spare ~2 GB of RAM for the container
- you only need a simple single-source downloader without metadata or request workflows
