Post Ebooks list and collections

Hi to all, I have a KOBO Clara BW reader. I have a lot of ebooks and divided them in different Collections, but I am not sure if I have handled all of them.
Is there a way to identify ebooks which belong to the ebook-list only (and not to a collection one)? I know that I can look at them one by one, but this is a too long work as I have a lot of ebooks...

Thank you to everybody who can help me

Are you managing your collections in Calibre or on the device?

If you're using Calibre to manage your library, it's easy to scroll down the list of books and see if any aren't shelved. So I infer that you're either managing on your device or doing a hybrid of both (which is what I do).

The solution I know, and some might have other suggestions, is to install Calibre and see what books are on the device; this will include any collections to which the books have been assigned. At that point, it will be easy to see what books you might have missed, although you will have to update manually on the device once you're untethered it.

And, if there are too many to remember or it's inconvenient to write them out by hand, Calibre can produce a catalog that you can read/scroll through on your computer after you've ejected your e-reader.
