I have books in the bookshelves on my computer.

I can transfer individual  books to my e.reader but is it not possible to transfer the bookshelves themselves?

    but how do I transfer the bookshelf?

    It is not possible to create bookshelves in the sony e.reader.

    I have used Sony reader library up to now and I could transfer new bookshelves from that, but that has gone kaput.

    SONY's Reader Library is different software. It creates a unique file

    format called '.lit' for ebooks. The SONY software can transfer a .lit

    bookshelf to your ereader, but ADE cannot.

    The default configuration for your SONY Reader Library software is that

    will manage .ascm and .epub files also. If you choose, you can say NO, and

    then another ebook software (ADE) can manage those types of files/books. If

    you choose YES, The Reader Library software will manage them also. I am not

    sure that the Reader Library software will transfer epub files in bulk.

    IT's not just a question of whether you can move an entire bookshelf at one

    time. You have to decide whether to wed yourself to SONY or not. If you

    do, you'll be bound to them for your ebooks. I have a PRS-300, and I've

    decided to use ADE to manage mine because I have a much wider range of

    sources to choose from.
