I discovered the missing formats and covers after Library Maintenance Check. This is the second time this happens. I am putting books back in one by one from a backup, but I have no idea what to do to prevent this from happening again.
Just a check - you are not using something like GoogleDrive to hold your library? That can cause this sort of effect as GoogleDrive mangles folder names in the library.
