It's fairly easy to do what you want:

- Click the library button (same icon as calibre) on the tool bar
- Choose the "Switch/create library..." option
- Enter or pick a location for the new library
- Select the "Create and empty..." option.
- I usually check the "Copy structure from the current library". This will include any custom columns you have in your current library. Without this, the new library is the stock calibre.
- Click the OK button.
- Switch back to your original library using the library button.
- Find and select the books you want to move to the new library
- Right-click on them and select "Copy to library" and then the "delete after copy" for your new library
