Not to discourage you on Calibre but maybe you would be better off with this program..

Alfa Ebooks Manager allows you quickly scan your computer to find ebooks. You can select specific folders on your PC and file types. The e-book organizer will automatically detect books, retrieve ISBN and create a book list that you can check, update and save to the database. It will also find duplicates if file already exists in the database. Besides, Alfa Ebooks Manager can automatically create cover thumbnails and retrieve file metadata for most popular e-book types.

I don't think the program copies books to database
