Effectively manage and store books/comics/manga

Hello, I’m wondering what do you guys use and recommend for efficient book, comic, manga and lightnovel file management, tagging, directory structures and automated tools for all that.

My collection is mostly made from humble bundle book bundles, for getting tags into comics I use comictagger and as for file structure, it was mostly just me just putting something to separate the books.

I wan’t to hear you guys input because most of you are a lot more efficient or have a lot more experience in saving big ammounts of data, and I wan’t to make my process as painless and future proof as possible as my collection starts to grow.

Edit: I use linux so software like comicrack which I heard a lot about isn’t really accessible to me. The files also need to be accessible to my kavita server.

PanaX,

I use jellyfin to host everything; movies, shows, books. It can tag matadata and id most books fairly well. But do not use it’s built in reader. I don’t know about comics though. I can then easily download whatever book to any device connected to the jellyfin server and use local software to read it.

I usually just use librera reader as it’s open source and highly customizable. But it does have it’s glitches.

Is calibre able to tag the comics, rename and move everything into a structured file structure?

It also can’t be inside a database since I have a kavita server running that I need the files to be accessible to.
