Wcott,
Effectively your comment means you told calibre to add another copy of your books into your existing library. So if you had 10 books in your library, you wanted to create a second entry of every book, for a total of 20 books within your library.

You did not need to add or re-import books into your calibre library. What you needed to do was re-establish a specific library as the one currently in use by calibre.

The command to do that is under Choose Library>Switch/create library... then you would have filled in the New Location path (manually or with the browse icon to it's right) to point to the correct folder where your library is located, and made sure the Use the previously existing library at the new location option was selected/checked. Although a bit strangely named, this option simply means calibre should use the library it finds in the destination folder - not create a new library.
