How many books do you you keep on your reader?
Once your book is finished do you remove from ereader or leave it on? Pros and cons of keeping it?

Thank you,

The number of books depends on the individual. Since I have a nasty habit of checking earlier books in a series when I think I've seen a continuity error, I keep most of my ebooks on my ereader. When I finish them, I just leave them on the ereader (actually, on the removable uSD card since that's my preferred spot to store them). I also have a fair sized collection of technical reference ebooks which may not be used for months so again just leave them there. With ~2400 ebooks, the only issue I've run into is when I do a factory reset and it takes quite a few hours to import the ebooks and metadata into the the database. That's the only issue I've been able to blame on having that many epubs on my ereader.

I also keep a couple of copies of my complete Calibre library on flash drives and in the cloud. You can never have too many backups.
