A few observations that I see. When I download an ebook directly like from a free EPUB from feedbooks, it shows up in the notifications list with the name of the EPUB file (e.g. Author -Title.epub). The Kobo notification says "URLlink.acsm?action=enterorder&ordersource" then it's cut off screen. The library book notification is similar. It says "booktitle.acsm?" then it's followed by a string which is cut off screen.

Another observation. You can see your download list. Open the browser. Select the menu button and then More > Downloads. Only the EPUB files that were directly downloaded show in this list. The library and Kobo books do not!

Last observation. When you open a book, you can select the menu button and then More > Settings > Info to see the filename and location. The library and Kobo books show their proper EPUB filename and that they have been stored in the Download folder in the main memory. The same file path as the direct EPUB file downloads.

Hope that helps you.
That's helpful indeed. I'll add the .acsm extension to our download links and see if it changes anything.
