A rooted Nook will give you the freedom to do things B&N restricts. IE: a out-of-box NOOK wifi or 3g won't let you keep your B&N books and side loaded books in the same folder, nor can you see the covers for the side loaded books. In a rooted NOOK your B&N and side loaded books are all in one library, you can search them all and look through the covers equally. You can also use the tags in calibre to make collections.

I use my tags to keep my books organized by genre (I have about 25 tags and can have the same book under as many tags as I want). Then I use the Shelves to organize what is read and unread.
