Good question. You can copy it no problem that way. Make sure the Kobo Glo is off when you remove the sd card. Then copy the books to the card with whatever device you use to read the Memory cards. I use a USB Memory stick adapter. Insert card to the Glo and turn it on.
I save all my books to a directory on my computer called ebooks here. This is over and above where Calibre stores its library. using Calibre I select save to disk option. IT saves the books via author and book title directory makes it easy for me to manage my books this way. I use the computer to sort the most recent items first so My newest books are always on top. Then I just cut and paste to my Memory card the directory that is needed and store it in the author directory if its already there otherwise if its a new author I copy the entire directory over. So on my memory card I have Ebooks here directory. An exact copy of what I saved on the computer. The other option is to connect your Glo after closing calibre and just doing the same thing by copy and pasting directly to the memory card via the glo's on interface. Either way works its what ever floats your boat on how you do it ultimately.
Good luck
