Been a long time since I messed with a Nook, but do we know if the Nook software allow for showing sideloaded books as part of the Nook Library? (B&N often has strange ideas about sideloaded content)
The
device manual just says to use the devices File Manager app to see your sideloaded content (I'd assume tapping a book in the file manager would launch the Nook reader assuming B&N did it right).

6. Select the files you want to transfer from your computer, then drag and drop them from your
computer to the storage of your NOOK.

This is essentially what Calibre is doing, but perhaps the Books folder is the wrong destination? Was that on the Nook or did Calibre create it with the initial transfer? Calibre is likely treating it basically as any other Android tablet (which is essentially what it is, just with a little customization)

NOTE: You can view PDF documents using the Nook software by copying the PDF file from
your computer to the Nook/copy folder location in internal storage.

This note mentions PDF so I don't know if that location will also work for ePub's or not. Might be worth a try though...

7. Once you finish sideloading the files you want to transfer, disconnect your NOOK from your
computer by using your computer’s file system to eject your NOOK as if you are ejecting a
disk.
8. Use your NOOK’s File Manager app to view files copied to your NOOK’s storage.
