   Keep your Library organized automatically and browse large collections more comfortably.

4. New Filter tool for searching through your personal library
   Quickly find books using formats, subjects, ratings, ownership statuses and more.

   Quickly update icons or delete multiple collections and subjects at the same time.

7. Multi barcode scanning without leaving Scan Mode
   Continuously scan multiple books in one session without reopening the scanner every time.

   Leero now automatically tracks how many times you reread a book and displays it in your Library.
