I tried using this plugin (Modify epub), checking Update metadata. I tried using the Polish feature, checking: update metadata in the book files, update the cover in the book files, add metadata as a 'book jacket' page.
However, when I tried to copy the book to the new library, none of the edited metadata stuck.
Am I missing something? How do I get metadata from custom columns to stick to the book when I copy it to a different library?

Copy to Library will move/copy
all fields that exist in BOTH.
If you have created the destination using with the using Copy Structure from the current (assumes you will use it as the source
), Calibre will do everything.
If you manually created or have modified the other Library: you will need to bring the
field structure into synch by hand. NOTE: Custom columns containing 'Fixed values'. The destination needs to
include ALL values used in the source table .
