Which catalogs could be added?
FBReaderJ can browse OPDS catalogs. If your preferred e-library provides such catalog, you can add them into FBReaderJ network library.
What is OPDS?
The Open Publication Distribution System (OPDS) catalog format is a syndication format for electronic publications based on Atom and HTTP. OPDS Catalogs enable the aggregation, distribution, discovery, and acquisition of electronic publications. OPDS Catalogs use existing or emergent open standards and conventions, with a priority on simplicity.
