I do the same thing, so yes, it's possible. My "working" library is my "Calibre Library", the one created originally by default. I also created "Calibre Fiction" and "Calibre NF" libraries to move my books to once I'm happy with the metadata and reformatted eBooks.

By the way, it's not complicated...but it's almost 4:30 AM where I am and I'm pretty "brain-dead" at the moment. I know someone else has posted how to do this, so I'm going to try to find it, rather than try to actually *think* and write it up myself.

Cool! Haha. I'm glad that this is possible, because I really would like to be able to browse the epub covers in Calibre, and see all the metadata in one place. I dunno, I'm weird like that, haha. But hell yeah, I think I'll definitely give that a whirl, see if I can somehow do that.

Haha. I totally understand where you're coming from. I've been awake for a few days, and I'm running on empty, hence my the death of my brain, albeit temporarily. Haha. But I'm sure I can figure this out. Thank you very much!

Would I be correct to right-click the books with metadata and 'Copy to Library', in this case something like 'Books with Metadata'? I'm sure I could think of a better name if I weren't about to pass out at my laptop, haha.

Thanks again, friend.
