I haven't had much luck finding a thread that addresses this problem, so hopefully this isn't a duplicate.

My problem is this: some of the books I've imported into my Calibre library (using the add books button, not doing it manually or anything) had some things I corrected (Ex: Author's first/last name was reversed, series name in the title of the book, that sort of thing) that didn't seem to save the corrections.

I copied my home library to my computer at work to work on editing some stuff on down time. This is the first time I noticed that the corrections I made had reverted back to the original (Agatha Christie had again reverted to Christie, Agatha on the books I had already fixed). I figured I'd done something incorrectly, so I fixed some of these problems again and then created a 2nd library in Calibre. I basically duplicated the library I had and stored it on a USB. I did all this through Calibre so that I didn't screw anything up.

And when I switched to my 2nd library...the errors were back. From what I could gather on the forums, this seems to have to do with internal metadata not getting updated (I could be wrong). So. How do I keep the corrections I've made in metadata (author/title changes, series, tag adds/removals) when I move/transfer a book, create a new library, etc??
