Create Library from a huge folder of books
Hello, I'm a really newbie in Calibre!
My problem is that I have a huge collection of books, most of them in pdf format. I´m talking about 300 GB in size. When I want to create a library, Calibre ask for a empty directory for both create the library and copy the books to this folder. At least, that's my idea how Calibre works. It is possible to create the library in my existing parent books' folder, so that Calibre doesn't copy such a huge mass of books to the empty folder? I don't know if i've get explain well the problem Thanks in advance |

Calibre leaves your originals alone. Do with them, what you want after Calibre has imported copies. There are stickies at the top of each Calibre forum section. They explain things relevant to the section. |
