into the app, or the cloud?

the app has an auto add folder option, so anything that arrives in that folder on the device gets added to Moon database ( and maybe also to Shelf - like most moon features its very configurable once you find the right preferences section )

the cloud options have the option of backup only annotations etc, OR backup the whole book

it's a pity there's no great user manual for the app e.g. for what can be done with "shelf", as that's a feature I don't use. I guess that's where you'd organise "collections"

i just add my books (usually) wirelessly, then open once using the "files" menu, then access from the " recents" menu. and sync via cloud as I read on 2 devices. I always put epub books into the same books/moonreader folder so whatever transfer method I use, I know where to find them.
the calibrebox app from google store will fetch books from dropbox for me
