This one depends on the version of the firmware that you're running.

I've seen the following occur:
If two or more 'real' pages span across a single eink/screen-sized page, it stores the number of the first 'real' page.
e.g.
page1 | page 1 of ebook
page2 |
------------------
page2 | page 2 of ebook
page3 |

When the device turns on and realises you were on page 2 of the actual book, it puts you at the start of page 2, which in this case is page 1 of the ebook.

Pressing the menu button dumps you back into the library menu. It only stores which folder you were last in while the device stays powered on. As soon as you power cycle it, it forgets were you were in the library.
Unfortunately you have to navigate back through manually, but at least it'll still remember the page you were on (for the most part).
