I am so not technically savvy and frequently feel like I am reading a foreign language.

HarryT's instructions in this post are easy to follow for you to try it out for yourself. I tried it with a single book, saw how it looked after reloading it onto my Kindle and it helped me make more sense of the info posted by eschwartz earlier in that same thread.

For collections with large memberships, it is difficult to navigate that list on eink devices (not as much of an issue on tablets). But note: you can adjust sort order and use Go To (tap on page status in lower right corner) to find it more quickly than page page page page. You are forgiven if you never discovered this feature.

Tomsem - Thank you so much for the "go to" tip, and how to find it.

I've been crazy frustrated that the search option suddenly disappears off the tool bar when I want to add a book to a collection - and I've had to manually go through page after page AFTER PAGE to get to find it! Infuriating when the title begins way down the alphabet

I wish I could give you triple karma!
