In Calibre I simply rename the books to reflect the series, etc. So, I end up with "titles" containing the series name (usually abbreviated), a 2 digit series number and the original title. So, for an Agatha Christy book I might have "Poirot 02 - The Murder on the Links".

But how can you filter among 100 books with different languages, genre, authors, series etc? If I, i.e, would like to see my Spanish criminal shortstories, then I would have to have a collection named Spanish criminal shortstories.
On my girlfriends Letto (Cyberbook) there is no way of doing this as well but there is a folder browser function, so she at least can sort them in corresponding folders and from the menu go to a specific folder. Not needing to also create a collection for each folder.
Either I want a functioning filter function based on metadata or a working folder browser function, so I myself can sort my books and browse among then. If Calibre can do it, why not the creators of the devices. Since the advertise them to store 2000 books. Then one need a good organizing and filter function on the device.
