    It doesn’t work for me. I have already quite a few epubs and pdf’s in my iPad.

    Following the procedure above to move one item, the whole lot goes into the new Collection, even though I only mark one / or several to be moved.

    Seems a bug in the new version of iBooks.

    I have updated my ipad and jailbroke it using redsn0w, and this made my iBooks not working. When i updated my iBooks, it is running normally now and working perfectly.
