2. In calibre, I would like to have something like a Read? column where I can make a check mark on books I've read. If I send books marked as Read to my Sony, I'd like caliber to automatically populate a new set of Collections that separate the read and unread books. I think it might be possible to use the template language to check if Read? is true, and if it is, use a SONY renaming rule to append (Read) to the genre-based Collection name, creating a new Collection for read books. If something along these lines is possible, would someone mind explaining how to set this up?
Not what you aer asking, but what I do.

In calibre I have 2 custom columns, read and tbr.

I type #tbr:true in the searchbar and sort on Read and send only books that are tbr and not read.

As I usually have several hundred books on my reader, I see no point in putting on ones I have read, but of course there are probably many reasons to do this.

I would think that if automatic management is turned off you could sort the books and send them in 2 batches with different templates.
