The simplest fix is to logoff on the device. This will wipe the old database and create a new one. It will restart, let you login again and download books from Kobo. Then it will add all the sideloaded books into the library. Unfortunately, you will lose the reading state for sideloaded books.

davidfor, many thanks - I do not know how the corruption happened, as I am very careful about ejecting the device properly, but somehow it must have happened.
Before I go for your suggestions, since I have a week old backup of the database, is it sensible to use it to replace the corrupted one (to salvage my annotations on sideloaded books), or would I be making things worse?
