Currently you can only have one bookmark per book and some users have wanted multiple bookmarks for each book. As far as I know (and have experienced) you can have a bookmark in every single book that you have on your kobo at the same time. Right now that means I have upwards of twenty bookmakrs in use (i.e. 20 books which have the last page I looked at noted).

As to the library the Kobo touch has a nice search function which when you type in a letter/partial word/word shows you the relevant books/authors on your Kobo. If you know the title/author or even a few letters you can easily find the book. The last five books you opened are on the front page for easy access and you can put favorite books there as well (a function I have never used).

Currently to browse the library you can arrange them by title or author and scroll through the books (either one at a time if you want to see a full cover or faster if you take a thumbnail). The request that many people are making is to allow the browse function to sort via meta data so you can have collections, genres, etc.

What is missing is the ability to search within a book which some people feel is important and the option to make notes within a book and export that file.
