Anna's Archive
Your Anna's Archive account secret key (login key; also called a donator key in some tools) enables membership fast downloads via /dyn/api/fast_download.json. Without it, Librarr uses public LibGen mirrors. Fast downloads also require an active membership on that account.

Wanted List & Quality
The scheduler searches every monitored wanted item on an interval, runs its quality profile over the results, and grabs the best acceptable release — a first copy when the book is missing, an upgrade when the file on disk is below the profile's cutoff.
Quality profiles
Tick the formats a profile may grab and order them best-first. The cutoff is where upgrading stops: once a file at or above it is on disk the item is satisfied. Formats left unticked are never grabbed automatically. The built-in profile for each media type is what items use unless you pick another.
Monitored authors
Followed authors are checked against Open Library on their interval. The first check records the existing catalogue silently; from then on each new work is added to the wanted list (or only announced, per author).
Search Preferences
Filter non-English results
When enabled, books with non-English titles are hidden from English-focused sources. Multilingual sources (Flibusta, Z-Library) always show all results.
Download Behavior
How imported files reach the library. Move takes the payload out of the download folder, so the torrent can no longer seed even if you keep it. Hardlink and Copy leave the payload in place so seeding continues; hardlinks need the download folder and the library on the same filesystem, and fall back to a copy when they are not. On Automatic you never have to think about it: keeping torrents hardlinks them, removing torrents moves them.
Remove torrents after import
When enabled, the torrent is removed from the download client after its files are imported. Disable it to keep seeding: the torrent's record stays in the client, and on Automatic its files stay in the download folder too — hardlinked into the library rather than moved, which is what seeding actually needs.
