My advice for Li-Ion batteries: Don't worry about them. Use them when you need to, charge them when you can. There are things you can do to extend their life, but they basically mean you aren't using the battery. And are impractical for a device like an ereader.
More importantly, there are a few things that will destroy them... The most important thing you mustn't do with Li-ion batteries is let them run dry. What you can do is let them drain to about 20% and then charge them again. Not because the battery needs it, but because the software needs to be calibrated...
