I'm not sure... eReader.com and Fictionwise.com are still separate sites, although the customer accounts are linked.
The best way to know is to ask the people who know : I've asked B&N about this, and here is their reply.

My question:

Hi,

I'm a Fictionwise customer (have been for a long time) and I have a lot of books in my Fictionwise bookshelf.

B&N bought Fictionwise, and now you have a e-shop for e-books, with a bookshelf, just as them.

Will I be able to access my Fictionwise ebooks in B&N bookshelf, just as they did when they bought eReader ?

Cheers,
David.
