I know you solved this, but it seems you might've misunderstood just what Calibre does: When you add a book, it creates it's own copy in the folder you designated for the library. The original files you imported are untouched and not linked to Calibre in any way. Thus, if something like this happens, you can just delete the books from the library, Calibre will then proceed to delete it's copies of the files from the library folder, everything else will be left untouched.
