While setting up my new Kobo Glo to work with Calibre, I came across the 'Configure Kobo Touch' dialogue'. Withing the dialogue there is a box with a caption that says:

"The Kobo Touch from firmware 2.0.0 supports bookshelves. These are created on the Kobo Touch. Specify a tags type column for automatic management"

No I have created a couple of bookshelves on my device. Does this somehow allow me to manage (i.e. organise and place books on the 'shelves') from Calibre? If so, what does 'tags type column' mean? No doubt the above means something to the developers, but I wonder if anyone can tell me in plain english what to put in here please and what it will allow Calibre to do?

Thanks.
