What you describe is called 'sideloading' and AFAIK all dedicated readers support it. So you can copy your ebooks by hand if you want.

But if you want a fantastic ebook management program that also runs on Linux, look at Calibre. It has a dedicated forum here and will support just about any reading device under the sun, as long as it will present itself as a USB Mass Storage Device to your OS.
