I'm in a dilemma here.

I've been creating a library of my pdf and audio books (separately) using the drag-n-drop from my directory holding the files into Calibre (portable).

The thing is, as I went to do a backup I have come to the realisation that Calibre has grown to over 12Gb and now realise that a copy of the books has been created in the Calibre directory.

All I wanted was the details and covers of the books.

Can I keep the libraries intact if I delete the Calibre copy and WITHOUT creating a catalogue?

Thanks
