Same with authors, series, publishers, calibre custom columns, etc. The only thing you need to do is tell CC that you want to see some calibre column in CC's grouping drawer. The default (title, authors, series, tags, publishers, rating, read) may be enough.
OK, have finished consolidating & found that I had left out some books on the Aldiko library for some dumb reason or other.

Was pondering whether to do the tagging after getting the books onto CC or do it on Calibre. Looks like will be doing some tagging & have it done in 2 or 3 days.

Have used Calibre for dis-infection of ebooks so far & haven't looked into what it can do. Aldiko & Mantano's method of adding books to a "collection" is quite simple & easy in that a list of known collections for one just to checkmark it (helps for misspelling also).
