Kobo's database can be accessed directly by Calibre. Kindle and Nook's databases cannot. So Calibre can create collections and add series info on a Kobo. The same cannot be done with other readers. With both Kindle and Nook (the only ones I'm familiar with besides Kobo) if you want, say, all your fantasy books in a collection, you have to do it directly on the device. But with a Kobo, you can tag all of your fantasy books and when you send them to your device, they will wind up in the fantasy collection.
(Sorry if I repeated info. My eight year old niece came in and asked me thirty seven questions as I was typing this
