First - Difflugia, thanks. That's a good fallback. I hope we don't need to go there....
I followed a link from another thread to check what updates my Nook Color might need....According to the BN support page, at software version 1.4.4...my NC already has TLS 1.2? Meets it? Well, if that's it....Maybe existing tools & setups will survive. I can (just did) pull files into Calibre (books and magazines). I do use Nook for PC generally for books as its folder makes one more backup (never too many). Nook for PC filenames are a bit more readable (book title part of filename instead of just ISBNs). I pull the magazines from my NC b/c Nook for PC has never handled the graphics right.
Anyhow - here is what the BN Support page has to say about Nook device compatibility. FYI, in case you're wondering about your device.

NOOK Device Software Updates for TLS 1.2 Compliance
All websites that handle customer information and process payment data are upgrading to new security standards, known as Transport Layer Security (TLS). TLS Versions below 1.2 are being phased out, and devices accessing the Internet that are not updated to utilize the required TLS Version will not be able to perform many functions related to Internet connectivity.
After June 29th, 2018, if your NOOK Device is not updated to meet these new TLS security standards, you will not be able to make any purchases, or download and manage your NOOK Content from your NOOK Device.
The following NOOK Software Versions already meet this new standard:
NOOK HD/HD+: 2.2.1
NOOK Simple Touch & NOOK Simple Touch with GlowLight: 1.2.2
NOOK GlowLight: 1.3.2
NOOK Color and NOOK Tablet: 1.4.4
If you find you are having trouble connecting to the NOOK Shop, downloading and managing your content, and if your Software Version number is lower than what is displayed above, you will need to update your software using the instructions provided below.
Determining the Version Number of Your Current NOOK Software
Go to NOOK Settings.
Tap on Device Info.
Tap on About Your NOOK.
Locate the version number of the NOOK software installed on your NOOK
