Anybody else had this issue???
I have to ask what did you expect to happen when you signed out of your ereader because what you are seeing is exactly what I would have expected to happen.

Books purchased from Kobo would be removed—after all, the ereader is no longer connected to that account, collections would revert to whatever Kobo's servers had for your collections, the database was wiped so your read/unread settings, highlights, etc. were cleared.

The only consolation is that your sideloaded books would not be removed and would be re-imported though the dates would be set to the current date and all reading statuses would be set to unread.
