Latest iTunes doesn't handle books!!

In the past I've downloaded many useful pdf files to the PC and then used iTunes to transfer them to iBooks on the iPad; handy when you're on the move...

The latest 12.7.4 iTunes no longer supports the "Books" folder..so how do you transfer all those pdf's to the iPad?????

After spending almost an hour with the Apple help guys, guess what?
It's not possible - without either using the iCloud (which we don't) or attaching the pdf to an email and opening in the iPad (which doesn't work with large pdf)

After even more time and going up the food chain with the Apple people, a possible but PITA solution appears to be to use "file sharing" and "Documents" app to get the pdf to the iPad then saving into iBooks. One file at a time......
