@kiwidude, thank you for the multiple clarifications. They are helpful. Out of curiousity, why wouldn't I want to insist on the internal epub metadata being updated before it hits the final library? As I understand it, if I don't insist on it at that point, it may never EVER be updated unless I again save/send it out from there, in which case it would only be updated in the new saved/sended out copy, not in the copy remaining in my final/main library. Or did I misunderstand something else?
