And then also on the SD card I have folders organised by author name, and series name folders inside author name folders.

I add a sequence number to the start of the names of books in series to make sure they display in order on the CyBook. Books in "a a new books" also get duplicated in the author folders, so that when I've finished them, I can just delete them from the folder on the Mac, which deletes them automatically from the same folder on the CyBook when it's connected.

In this way, although I have my entire library available, most of the time I only need to navigate near the start of the list.

If I want to access something in the main bulk of the library, I switch to 20-per-screen view, which speeds up the navigation.

Not ideal by any means, but getting there.
