There are two different things being discussed here:
1. The table of contents of the book. This will indeed use the device font which may or may not support the appropriate characters. A way around this is to have an "internal" TOC in the book itself, implemented with hyperlinks.
2. The list of books on the device - ie the "library". This may display metadata from the book or it may simply display the filename, depending on the device.
