I have a "three stage" process:

1. My eBooks (roughly 15000 or so at present) are all in an "eBooks" folder on my hard disk. Within that, I have one folder per author ("Lastname, Firstname"), within that I have one folder per book (the book's title), and finally within that, all the files associated with the book.

2. Every weekend, I copy the entire "eBooks" folder to an external USB hard disk (which, except when it's being used, is kept in a separate place from the computer).

3. About once a month, I back the lot up to DVD (which currently takes 4 DVDs) and keep those in my desk at work.

My eBooks really are now one of my most "precious possessions".
