1 - Download calibre on a PC (Windows/ Mac or Linux) https://calibre-ebook.com/
2 - add e-books to calibre through the gui menu. Then close calibre.
3 - copy the directory with the calibre database and the e-books in subdirectories to your Raspberry Pi.
4 - point COPS to the directory where you copied point 3 to.
5 enjoy COPS
Do not forget to protect your e-books from unwanted visitors with a password.

Mint. Absolutely mint. I'll be trying that tonight when I finish work.
Thank you both so much for your guidance.
