Do I have to reload all my books? or is there a file (the metadata.db file?) that I need to copy over? except that my library on my home computer is in a different directory than the directory in Calibre Portable.

There's clearly a step I'm missing - can someone help?

thanks,

Becca
Calibre Library has a default LOCATION and FOLDER NAME

You CAN switch to any other name. You WILL have to do this every time.
