+====== PHP EPub Meta ======
+
+This project aims to create a PHP class for reading and writing metadata
+included in the EPub ebook format.
+
+It also includes a very basic web interface to edit book metadata.
+
+Please see the issue tracker for what's missing.
+
+Forks and pull requests welcome.
+
+===== About the EPub Manager Web Interface =====
+
+The manager expects your ebooks in a single flat directory (no subfolders). The
+location of that directory has to be configured at the top of the index.php file.
+
+All the epubs need to be read- and writable by the webserver.
+
+The manager also makes some assumption on how the files should be named. The
+format is: "<Author file-as>-<Title>.epub". Commas will be replaced by __ and
+spaces are replaced by _.
+
+Note that the manager will RENAME your files to that form when saving.
+
+Using the "Lookup Book Data" link will open a dialog that searches the book at
+Google Books you can use the found data using the "fill in" and "replace"
+buttons. The former will only fill empty fields, while the latter will replace
+all data. Author filling is missing currently.
