Actually, you don't.
Both of these libraries have to be real
calibre libraries with a metadata.db file in their parent folder. (These libraries cannot be just a set of files you placed somewhere on your hard drive.)
Then you load (Quick Switch) the library that you want to
copy from. Highlight all of the books you want to copy and right click on any highlighted book. A context menu appears and you select Copy to Library and the appropriate library name you want to
copy to. Calibre will spend some time copying the files over and you should be set.
Please note that under the Add Books toolbar button there is an option on how to treat newly added books that are duplicates. You should set this as you want before adding books.
You might also want to review your Add Books template in Preferences. A good template can save you lots of time correcting data that is based on the filename.
