Easy peasy as they say
Thanks, I think I have a handle on it now - not perfect, but much better than before. I sort of do what you do. I use Calibre on my PC to copy my books to the NC. So far I can't get Calibre to move the books to the correct directory on the NC, so I use File Explorer on the NC to move the books to Aldiko, and finally, delete them after I've read them.

I learn more every day - just yesterday I figured out how to get Calibre to recognize the rooted side of the NC - before I was rebooting into the B&N side to get Calibre to recognize it. Obviously I have my rooting on the SD card. Eventually I'll figure out how to get them to the correct library on the NC and can stop having to move them manually.
