My issue in this regard is that opening the Kobo to view the book, it does not appear in the file structure I created. Is this normal? Is there a way to have the My Books section show the file structure?

The stock Kobo firmware does not expose the file system. You could install an alternative reader such as KOReader though even with KOReader, I use it's search on the calibre metadata. Personally, I find that search works with fewer taps needed and a lot faster (database vs. file system). Search lets me find a book by author, title or series and avoids the issues of books with multiple authors (way back in the distant past, I used to create symlinks for those books).

You have to go back years to find those discussions scattered around various threads. One example is
Kobo library vs file/directory system, wifi which I only remember for the original poster editing most of his posts to remove their content.
