Books and Reading covers where people find and track what they read. International reading resources points to libraries and reading sites for many languages and regions, and ebooks and digital libraries follows with lending services, archives, and collections of public domain texts. Books and reading resources collects recommendations, book clubs, and review sites, while book discovery and databases lists catalogues and shelf-like tools for tracking what you have read. Manga, comics, light novels, and audiobooks each have a topic of their own. Some entries are official publishers and some are unofficial archives, so check whether a source holds the right to distribute a title before you rely on it. Formats matter too, since a reading app may handle one file type well and another badly.
