Yes, it is in the System folder (hidden or revealed by the "protected system files' option in Windows). As long as the books are somewhere in the Documents folder, it doesn't seem to matter where. The collections file only references the ID hash for the file, not the location. In other words, it seems to check the file for it's ID first, then checks to see which collection it goes into, so the folder structure inside the Documents folder shouldn't matter, though it may take a restart to get it to read the file "fresh" if changes are made.
