Well I guess that answers my most pressing questions. I have a tendency to over complicate things and the custom columns in calibre was boggling my mind.

Not sure how I'm going to handle things. I changed the name to include the series and index so that helps me keep my series together and I may just not use the collections feature if in the end it's going to be duplicated in the "My Books" list, if you get my meaning.

I really like the %read and unread feature. I tend to read multiple books at a time and then forget which ones I started.
