If you read ebooks on more than one KOReader device, Progress Sync can keep the reading location for the same ebook in sync. MyBibliotheca can also connect that ebook document to a book in your library, so accepted positions become part of that book’s private reading history.

Connect with separate sync credentials

Enable KOReader sync in MyBibliotheca Settings and create a dedicated sync username and password. They are different from your website sign in. In KOReader, set the custom server to https://mybibliotheca.org/kosync, sign in with those credentials, and enable automatic document sync. Sending document metadata helps MyBibliotheca suggest a title and author match.

KOReader needs an active Wi-Fi connection to contact the server. Once you have pushed a location, check Settings in MyBibliotheca to review the synced document. If the title and author match exactly one book in your library, it can be linked automatically; ambiguous editions can be linked manually.

Match page numbers to your ebook edition

The page count on a catalog record may describe a different edition from your ebook. If KOReader progress is at the right percentage but shows an unexpected page number, edit the MyBibliotheca book and set Edition page count to the total shown for the ebook you actually have. Push progress again after saving.

Progress Sync sends a location for an ebook; it does not transfer ebook files or highlights. It also cannot push a website position back into KOReader, because the reader needs a document specific location inside the file. Highlights and notes use a separate plugin.

Setup and troubleshooting: Sync reading progress with KOReader · Edit book details · Send KOReader highlights and notes

If your e-reader already knows where you stopped, copying the same progress into a separate tracker can feel like busywork. MyBibliotheca can connect with KOReader so compatible ebook reading progress flows into your library. For readers looking for a KOReader tracker or an automatic reading progress tracker, the goal is simple: spend more time reading and less time entering the same update twice. Create a free MyBibliotheca account to get started.

Connect your reader and your library

The integration uses dedicated KOReader sync credentials, separate from your website login. Set up those credentials in MyBibliotheca, then configure KOReader to send progress to the service. The step-by-step KOReader setup guide explains the details and helps you check the connection.

Once connected, compatible progress updates can appear with the matching book in your MyBibliotheca library. That gives you a reading history that includes ebook activity without requiring you to recreate every page position manually. You can still log sessions yourself when you want to capture other reading, such as print pages or audiobook minutes.

Keep highlights in the picture

Progress and annotations are related, but they use separate workflows. If you want to send highlights or notes from KOReader too, follow the KOReader highlights guide. Keeping both connected can make it easier to find a passage later alongside the book and your broader reading history.

A tracker that fits your reading setup

Your reading tracker should fit the tools you already use. Sign up for MyBibliotheca, configure KOReader once, and keep compatible ebook progress with your library.
