Yes, your BN and non BN files are now combined into one library (and you can see the covers on nonBN content now, in a cover flow sort of view if you chose). Shelving, while not perfect, is much easier now and auto-alphabetizes itself now.

Having used both, I find the newer UI much easier to use. BN of course forgot to put a meter on your internal memory, so you could see how much more BN book space you have (not so for the SD card), but I expect that to be fixed in a firmware update.

Do you have specific questions? I'd be happy to address them here or in PM.
