Quite a few programs on Mac OS X, such as iPhoto, will display a requester asking which library you'd like to use if you launch with Option (alt) held down.

I'd love to see something like this in Calibre, which would give you the choice of opening multiple known libraries or creating a new one. It sounds like a relatively simple addition if approved.

I could then have my main unsorted library of ~3000 books (mainly PD or my own conversions from other formats, thus with VERY irregular tagging), a "sorted" library of stuff that I'm keeping on the Reader, and a third library of stuff I am waiting to clean up and install when I have time...
