Should I create a custom column to house my Collections info? Also, can I populate that column with collections info from Kobo first... and then start editing it?

Thanks!
You don't need series based collections. You also don't need a custom column for collections. I use the Tags column for collections. When I add eBooks to Calibre and they have rubbish in the OPF that causes the Tags column to be populated, I just delete the rubbish and put in what I want if I want.
