Generate Catalog as BibTeX «KeyError: u'library_name'» error

[Alan Aversa]

I selected three books in Calibre 0.9.23 for which I wanted to generate a BibTeX catalog, but I get the following error:

Remove the library_name field and you should be fine.

Fixed in branch lp:calibre. The fix will be in the next release. calibre is usually released every Friday.
