What should i do?

Well, actually you should be able to copy books to the root directory and the T3 should see them.
But you probably would rather organize them to their normal folder.
When you click on the Sony_Reader folder (assuming it's there) what do you see (if anything)? This is where your database, Digital Editions and media folders should be (database and media not capitalized). Under the media folder you should have three more folders, books, images and notepad (again, these are not capitalized).
At any rate, that's what you should see.
If, under Sony_Reader you don't see the media folder, you should be able to use your file manager to create a new media folder. And then you can click into that folder and create the folders that should be there.
One more possible issue. In Linux (at least) when I connect to my T-3, I get two partitions. One is called Reader and one is called Setup. The Setup partition has three folders, plus a Windows .exe file. This is just for installing the Sony Reader software and setting up the T3. (Probably completely useless now.) Double check to make sure you're in the Reader partition.
Sorry for rambling.
