PRS-600 Editing book titles

Hi can someone tell me the correct way to edit my books so they are in correct order, as they always seem to end up mixed up. I use calibre to download books to reader

Nickygrist, this is what I do. First I make sure the books are in the proper sequence using the series numbering system in Calibre, i.e. Book 1, Book 2 etc. The I copy them one a time to my reader. That way they are in the proper sequence when I view on my reader. This process can be a little time consuming but it works well for me. Perhaps one of the other members might suggest a better method.

I don't know what I did right, but I'm using calibre to copy mine over as well, but I'm doing it batches at a time. So far, I think it's missed adding a title to the right collection only once, and they're all in the correct series order, too.
Then again, I've just spent the last month sorting and adding my books to Calibre, adding metadata as I go, so maybe it's all that work that's now paying off.
