I have a separate column for my tags and my shelves, and my shelves are automatically imported to my kobo as collections.

I want to populate my shelf column based on the tags that get pulled from any download metadata.

I use the tags column to populate the subtitle on my kobo, so I want it separate from my collections. Anyone have any ideas?

So some example tag column values:
Book 1: Fantasy, Humor, Adult
Book 2: High Fantasy
Book 3: Comedy, First Love, Young Adult
Book 4: Fairy Tales; Folk Tales; Legends & Mythology; Legends & Mythology

Example collection values:
Book 1: Fantasy, Comedy
Book 2: Fantasy
Book 3: Comedy, Romance
Book 2: Fantasy
