I've noticed that even though I change the cover of a book in Calibre, on my reader (PRS-350) and on the viewer in the software itself, the old cover remains. The new cover is displayed when clicking on view metadata, or down the right-hand side pane.

I essentially now have two covers for quite a few of my EPUBs.

Am I doing something wrong? Is this normal behaviour? Any solutions?

Many thanks.

p.s. As an example, I've just downloaded Orwell's 1984 from this site, loaded it into Calibre, and looked up metadata. I chose a new cover and allowed Calibre to change the publisher and published date. All seemed fine until I opened the file to read.
