I don't use shelves anymore. I do use Calibre to add series information to books. Since search is able to search on title, author and series, I find this meets my needs and I don't have the complaints about slowness when you have a couple of hundred shelves and lots of books on them. Since the majority of my ebooks fall into 4 categories (science fiction, fantasy, mystery and classics -- Thorne Smith is classic, isn't he -- I found most of my shelves were either author or series.
I do take a few minutes to clean up most ebooks before I sideload them. Sigil with FlightCrew and epubcheck are my two favourite tools. This has saved me from the common problem of sideloading a batch of ebooks and having the processing screen hang on one bad book with no indication of which ebook caused the issue.

I have around 1780 books on my Aura at this time and search takes care of my needs for locating books. When I tried to use shelves, it was too much like work to maintain them.
