First thing I notice is how books to buy spring at you and you can't miss them but, I can't find NOWHERE on my PC software a button to LOAD the books I already have on my computer on to my Kobo ...
So how do I do that ?
The Kobo desktop software isn't really for managing your library. It certainly doesn't manage books that you did not buy from Kobo. The Desktop software is useful for syncing your Glo or buying books from kobo. But you can also sync your Glo via wifi, and you can buy kobo books from the kobobooks.com site. So there aren't many people that actually use the desktop software.

Calibre works really well to manage your library though.

Yes, very easy.

There's a guide here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=193184 that will help you setup calibre to manage your book shelves as well, and some other fun useful things (like titles of books showing their series and series #).
