Sorry if this is a dumb question - once I import all my epubs into Calibre, do I still need to keep them (outside the Calibre library)?

Or can I just download to a temp file and once they're in Calibre delete the original files, since Calibre has it's own library and I *think* it doesn't link back to the original file? If it links to the original file I don't want to delete it obviously, but I don't know why I'd keep them if I'm using Calibre for my book management ....

Ideas/answers appreciated (again, sorry if this is a dumb question)
