I have a huge collection of eBooks on my hard drive.
Is there any eBook Manager tool for desktop ?
What I want is something like - if I type SEO in the tool it will show me all the eBooks I have tagged with SEO.

It will make my life a lot more easier

Thanks in advance
Regards
Nazbir

    In Windows Vista and 7 (maybe XP?), you can simply search a directory for the content you're looking for. I don't think a 3rd party manager is necessary. Just put all your books in one folder, and then search. There's also a function that will let you tag individual files with keywords. That will make searching more accurate and faster.

    Assuming you're using Windows, of course...

        Well I know I can search the directories but I don't want to put all my eBooks in one folder . I am using Windows 7.
