A month ago I had the same problem: my calibre library suddenly disappeared, all the folders inside the "calibre library" directory were gone. I noticed the problem some days after I had backed up the "calibre library" folder. At the time, I thought that maybe instead of copying and pasting, I had cut and pasted. I will never know.
I am using calibre portable and I keep my library in the same pendrive as the program.

This may be a symptom of either a Drive (sector) failure (note flash drives have limited write cycles), filesystem corruption (you might recover lost sectors) or an rogue Antivirus intervention.
Check the event viewer and/or A/V logs for ideas of what might have happened.
Note that removable drives are subject to accidental
early removal caused errors
