You can organise sideloaded books on the disk in whatever way you want. The only rule is that if they are in a directory whose name starts with a dot, the device will not look for them.

Same question w.r.t. to the parent directory for a "Fonts" subdirectory.

There is a sticky at the top of the forum with details about fonts. Including how to add them. I'd suggest starting there. I don't usually add fonts, and have to look at the thread on the rare occasion I want to try one.

Perhaps it would be simpler to let Calibre take care of it. I used Calibre a bazillion times when I needed, erm, cough cough, to make B&N ebooks accessible to, uh, another e-reader app. But if I can do this by just copying .epub or .pdf files at the command line, that's fine too.

You can just use the OS tools to get the books onto the device. But, once you get past a few books, you need some method to organise them. Personally, I find calibre excellent for that, plus it makes it very easy to get the books onto the device.
