There is almost 0 reason to need to direct access those folders. The Library can deliver books to most devices (or a device folder)
However, if OP is asking how to copy files to his Nook in a different file structure, than this default, the way to do it is to go to the preferences and change the template in the Saving Books to Disk and Sending Books to Device preferences. In my case, the template is:

Calibre/{author_sort[0]}/{author_sort:sublist(0,1,&)}/{series:|| }/{series_index:0>2s|[|] }{title}

which copies to folders A-Z, and then in folders sorted by the last name, in folders by series, and then the series number followed by the title.

The template documentation can be found here.
