If you choose move it will move it from the folder on your computer to the folder on the reader. This will not leave a copy of the book on your computer. That's why you don't want that.
If you left click the file and drag it to your reader it will permanently move the file from it's current location, on your computer, to the reader. Think of it this way, if you have a box of items in your bathroom and then pick it up and move it to your dining room, then the box will no longer be in the bathroom. Moving it does not leave it in two places at the same time. Does that make sense?

Thanks Shopaholic. Linux is different. I can left click and drag the file to a folder and it will be put into the folder and the original will stay on the Desktop. (It's weird: if I drag a file from the Desktop to a folder on the Desktop it will "move" and not copy it.)
So I think I'm okay with this.
