I have a folder called "Ebook Dump", into which I put all freebees and public domain books. If I want to read one, because I see it mentioned for example, I find the best version, fix that up for my library, and then delete the rest of them.
I do the same thing. I would recommend, if these are versions that you have not loaded into Calibre, to sort them by genre. I have 7 folders - tobesorted, scifi, fantasy, paranormal, crime/thriller, mystery and nonfiction. Keeps your computer from becoming awash with 3 dozen folders that say ebook in some form or other (to prevent duplication). Then, when you have a day like me, waiting for 3 phone calls, you can sort for an hour or two.

Finally, has anybody ever known of any book that is available at Guttenberg becoming unavailable? I haven't. I don't store stuff that is on Guttenberg since I can download it at any time. If I'm inspired to download a couple of interesting titles, they go right into Calibre.
