The facts supplied by you:
1)Metadata.db exists
2?)There are: a)no Author folders, or b) Book folders within, or c)formats within those
3)The Gui reflects 2b. This sort of indicates a valid Library action.
Do you have some sort of cloud or mirror configured?
do you have some sort of scheduled script against the Library folder
 Do ALL these books have a tag News |
I don't have any cloud or mirror configured, nor any scheduled scripts.
The only scheduled scripts that I know of that would touch this are:
- Apple's "searchlight" indexing program
- Apple's periodic Time Machine backup system
A quick eyeball scan in Calibre shows no
News tag, in the tags display column, but I don't know whether any such tag would have been lost.
