The readers is claimed to be able to hold 6,000 books but without a "cataloguing feature, this would be prohibitively cumbersome. Does anyone have any ideas.
Thanks in advance

What you can do is organize your books like you did on your Sony with collections. You just have to go into Calibre and edit the settings in the driver and go.
To do this...
Preferences -> Sending books to device and set metadata management to Automatic management. Then Calibre will automatically update the collections every time your Kobo is connected.
1. Click Preferences
3. Sending books to devices
4. Automatic management
5. Apply
6. Click Plugins
7. Search for kobo reader device interface
8. Click Customize
9. Click Extra customization
10. Put in the dialog box the columns you want to use for tags and series. I use tags, series And given that you have had Sony, those would be appropriate columns
11. Check Upload Black and White covers
12. Check Upload covers for book (newer readers)
13. Check show expire books
14. The others are up to you if you want checked or not. I have them unchecked.
15. Click OK
16. Click Apply
17. Clock Close
If a requester does pop up asking to restart, click to restart Calibre. If you don't get such a requester, go to step 14.
18. Restart Calibre
