I have more than 4,000 titles. A lot of them are short stories or technical reference works. I had this crazy idea that I could just put EVERYTHING on a NOOK (classic) since there certainly was the storage available especially after I added a memory card.

Unfortunately the NOOK (classic) starts choking at about 1950-2100 titles AND the methodology for seeking a title is pretty cumbersome unless you know the name well enough to search.

So I abandoned the "whole library in my hand" concept. I still use the NOOK and like it quite a bit but I had to lower my expectations quite a bit and start using Calibre a lot.
