P.S. However, from my end, there's an option to add an "embed metadata" function to the toolbar.
The Edit menu, and "Integration with calibre" are part of Edit E-Book, of course.

In the Library component (the main part of calibre), Embed Metadata is indeed the correct way to go.



And as BetterRed pointed out, if you usually use calibre's send-to-device feature to transfer the EPUBs,,,,, then the metadata should be properly updated in the copy sent to the device.
