Are you referring to non iTunes purchased pdf/epub? Those, I save in iCloud Drive.

Bookmarks? ensure the books app is sync via iCloud.

I have a Books app question: is it just me or is the 'search ' function in books meaningless? When I try (iPad or MBP) to search an Apple Manual (iPhone OS or MBP) for say 'Screen shots' or even 'index'....nothing! Or just a list of the word as used in the contents??? Try it! Its as if the search function does nothing...or am I missing something?

I surely never had this problem. See a screenshot.
