I saw this in a thread in the 505 forum and I've seen references to it concerning the 600, but does it apply to the 300?

"define and apply tags to titles in Calibre. These tags are then used to define collections on the Sony reader."

I've been using calibre to add tags to my ebooks, but when I transfer them to my 300, they don't show up in collections. I usually use the Sony library to drag and drop, so I wondered if syncing would make a difference?

I can create collections in the library and move those and the reader shows them with the books I added in the library. Do the empty collections need to be on the reader first to use the tags?

Anyway, I guess I'm trying to figure out why I'm cleaning up my tags if the reader doesn't use them. Or I'm missing something......??
