Of course, I think this was all done once, so unless you've done another Save to Disk, or one of the above, it should have been cleaned.
IIRC, you (the OP) were at one time confused that a Save to Disk was needed to save the metadata. I wonder if theducks has hit this correctly and you have Save to Disk pointed to your Calibre Library??? That would explain this. To check, try to go through the steps of Save to Disk, and stop at the point where it asks you to point to the folder to save in. See if you are pointed to your Library! Calibre remembers where the last Save was done, so if it's pointed to the Library that would confirm this.
If so, clean it up by the two steps above, then see if any problems reoccur.

I don't think I ever did a save to disk thing, at least not on the scale we are talking about, there are a ton of book folders.
I went ahead and moved my library (after backing it up of course!) and then checked the database integrity. This seems to have gotten rid of all the extra book folders that were showing up.
I am guessing that the problem perhaps occurred when I did a mass import the first time? I am not sure. Ahh well it appears to be fixed currently so I am happy.
