i use a Kobo Clara HD. It runs linux out of the box, the system memory is on a removable SD card inside the case, and the user account is defined in an SQLite database on disk. If you add an empty user account to the database, it removes the "create account" screen and disables any Kobo online services. Then you can install KOReader and upload files over USB as everyone else has said.
On the Clara 2E and newer readers you don't even have to interact with the database anymore. You can plug in the reader using USB and edit a config file to enable Sideload mode which will remove the login screen and default home page and instead deposit you straight into the library menu.
Another user with a Kobo Clara HD with KOreader. I can vouch for this one as well.
