Backing up is simple. Just copy the library folder to the USB drive.

You're other choices:

Create Library will make a new empty library at a new location.

Save to disk saves each book individually. This would be more for getting a book out of calibre with all metadata (that's possible) written to the book. One major use for this is taking a book out to edit then re-adding it once you're changes are done.
