Use right click and shift to copy all the books. Then sit back as they load into Calibre. If you are really anal (like me), you can go into them and edit the metadata - for example, I want the tags to read Romance, but also suspense or Christmas or regency. I added romance by editing metadata in bulk (just type it in the tag space), and then I went back and changed the others.
I don't know why I started emailing instead of side-loading. But I just used shift to highlight a number of books (31 on the first night), and then used Calibre to email them to my kindle and my fire. It takes about 5 minutes a book (I use my gmail address as the sender), but then they are backed up on the Amazon servers under personal documents.
