@JohnnyBook - Calibre itself doesn't have a backup feature as such. It does put a copy of each books metadata into the respective book folders (metadata.opf), they're there so that the library database (metadata.db) can be rebuilt if/when it becomes corrupted - I hasten to add that's never happened to me.

Many people use one of the plethora of File/folder synch tools, to maintain a copy on another disk (usually external) or cloud storage or both.
