Trying to remember, based on the titles alone, what order a series of books goes in can be quite frustrating. Read on as we show you how to annotate and sort your book titles as they’re transferred to your ebook reader for frustration-free reading.

试图记住，仅根据书名，一系列书籍的排列顺序就很令人沮丧。 请继续阅读，我们将向您展示如何对书名进行注释和排序，因为这些书名已转移到您的电子书阅读器以进行无忧阅读。

Here’s a common situation: you’ve transferred a series of books to your ebook reader and, once on the reader, there is no easy way to tell the books apart. Does *The Mysterious Ranch* come before *The Mysterious Mid-Century Modern*? You could go through the enormous hassle of renaming every series book you have to include the series and series number in the title, but there’s no need to do that. Thanks to a very handy function in the popular ebook management application Calibre, all it takes is a few minutes of tweaking to enjoy automatically renamed and properly numbered books on your ebook reader.

这是一种常见的情况：您已经将一系列书籍转移到了电子书阅读器中，一旦进入阅读器，就没有简单的方法可以将这些书区分开。 *神秘牧场*是否早*于世纪中叶的神秘主义* ？ 您可能会遇到巨大的麻烦，那就是重命名每本必须在标题中包含系列和系列编号的系列书籍，但是没有必要这样做。 得益于流行的电子书管理应用程序Calibre中非常方便的功能，只需几分钟的调整即可在您的电子书阅读器上欣赏自动重命名和正确编号的书。

## 我需要什么？ **(**What Do I Need? **)** ##

For this tutorial you’ll only need your ebook reader and free tools. Here’s what we’re using:

对于本教程，您仅需要电子书阅读器和免费工具。 这是我们正在使用的：

*  [Calibre][] (a free and open-source ebook manager).
    
    [口径][Calibre] (免费和开源的电子书管理器)。
 *  A Kindle (this trick works with Nooks and other ebook readers, too).
    
    Kindle(此技巧也适用于Nooks和其他电子书阅读器)。
 *  An ebook series.
    
    电子书系列。

If you’ve never used Calibre before, we’d recommend checking out [our guide to organizing your ebook collection with Calibre][] to familiarize yourself with the application.

如果您以前从未使用过Calibre，我们建议您查阅有关如何使用Caliber [组织电子书收藏的指南，][our guide to organizing your ebook collection with Calibre]以熟悉该应用程序。

## 入门 **(**Getting Started**)** ##

![2012-05-15\_143510][2012-05-15_143510]

The most important thing is that you have the book series in Calibre. For the purposes of this tutorial we created a set of ebook files by a fabricated author—our apologies to those readers who are dying to know what happens in *The Mysterious Mid-Century Modern*.

最重要的是您拥有Calibre系列图书。 出于本教程的目的，我们由虚构的作者创建了一组电子书文件，对于那些渴望了解*《中世纪中世纪的神秘》的*读者，我们深表歉意。

The second most important thing is that you’ve correctly labeled the series in Calibre using the Series meta-data tag. If you don’t have it done already, we promise this will be the most labor intensive (and thankfully one-time) part of the tutorial.

第二个最重要的事情是您已经使用“系列”元数据标签在Caliber中正确标记了该系列。 如果您还没有完成它，我们保证这将是本教程中最耗费人力的(并且很幸运地是一次)。

![2012-05-15\_144012][2012-05-15_144012]

An easy way to quickly tag all the books in a series is to highlight the books, right click on the highlighted group, and select **Edit metadata individually**. In the Edit Metadata menu you can enter the Series name and Number at the top of the screen. If you need help figuring out the order of the books in the series you’re editing, we highly recommend you visit the helpful website [FictFact][]—there you can browse by author name and book series.

快速标记系列中所有书籍的一种简单方法是突出显示书籍，右键单击突出显示的组，然后选择“ **单独编辑元数据”** 。 在“编辑元数据”菜单中，您可以在屏幕顶部输入系列名称和编号。 如果您需要帮助来确定正在编辑的系列书籍的顺序，我们强烈建议您访问有用的网站[FictFact-][FictFact]您可以按作者姓名和系列书籍进行浏览。

You’ve got your books? You’ve tagged them with the correct Series and number? Now it’s time to tie it all together.

你有书吗？ 您是否用正确的序列号和编号标记了它们？ 现在是时候将它们捆绑在一起了。

## 设置口径插件板 **(**Setting Up a Calibre Plugboard**)** ##

## ![2012-05-15\_145403][2012-05-15_145403]  **(****)** ##

Calibre has an awesome feature known as a Plugboard. The plugboard exists exclusively to allow you to, on-the-fly, edit ebook metadata during the send-to-device and save-to-disk operations. Thanks to the magic of the plugboard you don’t have to do annoying and time consuming things like hand edit book titles in order to insert the series name/number or otherwise resolve formatting and ordering issues on various ebook devices.

口径具有令人敬畏的功能，称为插件板。 该插件专门用于允许您在发送到设备和保存到磁盘的过程中即时编辑电子书的元数据。 借助插件的魔力，您不必为了插入系列名称/编号或解决各种电子书设备上的格式和排序问题而烦恼和费时的事情(如手动编辑书名)。

Currently our series, MysteryHouse, contains 6 books:

目前，我们的系列MysteryHouse包含6本书：

*  *The Mysterious House*
    
    *神秘屋*
 *  *The Mysterious Palace*
    
    *神秘宫*
 *  *The Mysterious Mansion*
    
    *神秘大厦*
 *  *The Mysterious Bungalow*
    
    *神秘的平房*
 *  *The Mysterious Mid-Century Modern*
    
    *中世纪神秘的现代*

If we were to simply transfer them to our Kindle, there would be no indication which book came first or last in the series. A simple plugboard can solve that problem by, as the books are copied to the Kindle, editing the title/metadata so that we can, at a glance, see which book is which.

如果我们只是将它们转移到我们的Kindle，则不会显示该书中哪本排在第一或最后。 一个简单的插件板可以解决该问题，方法是：将书籍复制到Kindle上，编辑标题/元数据，以便我们一眼就能看出哪本书是哪本书。

To create your plugboard, click on **Preferences –> Metadata plugboards** (located in the Import/Export section). You’ll be presented with a blank plugboard, like so:

要创建您的插件，请单击“ **首选项”->“元数据插件”** (位于“导入/导出”部分中)。 您将看到一个空白的插件板，如下所示：

![2012-05-15\_145555][2012-05-15_145555]

The first order of business is to select the format and device. While you could run it wide-open with “any format” and “any device” selected, it’s wiser to set up specific plugboards for specific devices. We’re going to be setting one up for a Kindle 3 (now known as the Kindle Keyboard). For the Format, we’ll select MOBI and for the Device we’ll select Kindle2 (the Kindle 2 and Kindle 3 use the same metadata formatting).

首先要选择格式和设备。 尽管您可以选择“任何格式”和“任何设备”来全开它，但为特定设备设置特定的插板是比较明智的。 我们将为Kindle 3(现在称为Kindle键盘)设置一个。 对于格式，我们将选择MOBI，对于设备，我们将选择Kindle2(Kindle 2和Kindle 3使用相同的元数据格式)。

Under the **Source template** you insert the the naming string you’d like to use for the books. Although you can make your own by reading [this Calibre manual entry][] on the subject, we’ll save you the trouble and share a few basic ones here. Our examples are arranged with the string first and the example output second.

在“ **源”模板下** ，插入要用于书籍的命名字符串。 尽管您可以阅读[Calibre手册中][this Calibre manual entry]有关此主题的文章，但您可以自己做，但我们将为您省去麻烦，并在此分享一些基本知识。 我们的示例排在第一位，然后输出示例。

*\{series\}\{series\_index:0>2s| \#| –  \}\{title\}*

*\{series\} \{series\_index：0> 2s |* *＃|* *–\} \{title\}*

MysteryHouse \#01 – The Mysterious House

神秘屋＃01 –神秘屋

*\{series\}\{series\_index:0>2s| – | – \}\{title\}*

*\{series\} \{series\_index：0> 2s |* *– |* *–\} \{title\}*

MysteryHouse – 01 – The Mysterious House

神秘屋– 01 –神秘屋

*\{series:|| \}\{series\_index:0>2s|\[|\] \}\{title\}*

*\{系列：||* *\} \{series\_index：0> 2s | \[|\]\} \{title\}*

MysteryHouse \[01\] The Mysterious House

神秘屋\[01\]神秘屋

Once you’ve selected the naming string you’d like to use, paste the code into the Source template slot and then select “Title” in the **Destination field***.* We’re using the second one in the list for this tutorial. Click **Save plugboard**. The plugboard will appear in the Existing plugboards box like so:

选择了要使用的命名字符串后，将代码粘贴到“源”模板插槽中，然后在“ **目标”字段中**选择“标题” *。* 我们在本教程的列表中使用第二个。 单击**保存插件** 。 该插件将显示在“现有插件”框中，如下所示：

![2012-05-15\_151631][2012-05-15_151631]

If you need to tweak the plugboard in the future, simply select it and click it and the variables for that plugboard will automatically load into the menu for editing.

如果将来需要调整该插件板，只需选择它并单击它，该插件板的变量将自动加载到菜单中进行编辑。

Now that we have the plugboard set up, it’s time to test it out. Click **Apply** in the upper left hand corner to exit the plugboard menu and apply your work. Close the preferences screen and return to the main Calibre menu.

现在我们已经设置好插件板，现在该进行测试了。 点击左上角**适用**于退出插板菜单和应用工作。 关闭首选项屏幕，并返回到Calibre主菜单。

Make sure your device is plugged into your computer and then highlight the books in the series you wish to send to your device. Right click and select **Send to device**—pick the storage option on the device you normally use, in our case “main memory”.

确保将设备插入计算机，然后突出显示要发送到设备的系列丛书中的书籍。 右键单击并选择**发送到设备-**选择您通常使用的设备上的存储选项，在本例中为“主内存”。

Dismount your device and power it up. If everything went as planned you should see the book series neatly named and organized like so:

卸下设备并打开电源。 如果一切按计划进行，您应该会看到该书系列的名称和结构井井有条，如下所示：

![2012-05-15\_152517][2012-05-15_152517]

Success! No more wondering whether the *The Mysterious Palace* precedes *The Mysterious Mansion*! Any time you add more devices to your stable of gizmos, you can hope back into the plugboard menu and create a new plugboard script for the device. You’ll never be left trying to remember what order your books go in again.

成功！ 不再怀疑*神秘宫殿*是否在*神秘大厦*之前！ 每当您将更多设备添加到Gizmos稳定器中时，都可以希望返回到插件菜单，并为该设备创建新的插件脚本。 您再也不会想着要记住书的顺序了。
