|
## How Requests Work
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. You request a title in Shelfmark.
|
||
|
|
2. Shelfmark processes the request and adds the ebook or audiobook to the appropriate library (Calibre for ebooks, Audiobookshelf for audiobooks).
|
||
|
|
3. Once available, you can read or listen via [Calibre-Web](../media-and-entertainment/calibre-web.md) or [Audiobookshelf](../media-and-entertainment/audiobookshelf.md).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Tips
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- **Search first:** Check if a title is already in the library before requesting — avoid duplicates.
|
||
|
|
- **Formats:** Shelfmark will source the best available format (EPUB, PDF, MOBI for ebooks; M4B, OPUS for audiobooks).
|
||
|
|
- **Tracking:** Use Shelfmark to rate and review books after you finish them — stats sync across Calibre and Audiobookshelf.
