Thanks for the thoughts everybody.

My reasons for wanting to demerge the formats are:
1. I wish to have all my epub books in a separate library that will be synced with a memory stick. This is not all my books. This is for a family member who does not have access to my computer. (Because they always want to change the way I do things - ah, the arrogance of youth!) And is not interested in history, biographies etc.
2. Once I have tinkered and converted there will be no further changes to the metadata that will need to be carried out on two files. It is at this stage that I want to separate off the epubs from my azw3s.

However, if there is no easy way to do it then I can live with that. I currently copy to a dedicated library then delete the unwanted formats in that library. And remove the retained format from the originating library.
