How to Set Up a Raspberry Pi 4B Home Server: Installing Calibre Web for Public Access to Your E-Book Library

Recently, I have been organizing my collection of e-books to make them accessible online. Although the Calibre desktop application is powerful and can enable local HTTP services, the HTTP interface is rather simplistic.
