Why you lost the lists I am unsure of, but I thought those lists are simply recently accessed list. So by switching to each library in turn they should show up in your list again.

That sounds like what I was suggesting. I'm unsure why the list isn't updating.

Your libraries aren't "disappearing" as you stated earlier you can switch to them easily enough.
Restart calibre. Reboot your computer. Try again.
You could try the following. Go to
Preferences - Miscellaneous and
open the calibre configuration directory folder. Once opened, exit out of calibre. Rename the folder. Start calibre. This will create a brand new configuration directory folder, you will loose all custom preferences, but it will give you a chance to try fresh. If need be you can always exit out of calibre and go back to the original configuration directory.
Rebuilding your libraries can not solve the problem your having.
Rarely is there a compelling reason for multiple libraries. Why folks don't just use a single library with specific tags and take advantage of Saved Searches and the
Restricted library option is beyond me, it is so much simpler to maintain.
