- The library is on my data drive as E:My Epubs\Calibre. How could the calibre software know to move it there? I'm sure I've never moved the library there myself.

Perhaps you forgot that you moved it?
It didn't do it by itself, that much I know.

- Does it matter that the folder is named Calibre, rather than Calibre Library?

No -- a calibre library can be called anything.
"Calibre Library" is just the default folder name that calibre (offers to) create when first used.

- Could I use the Calibre>Library>switch location method to _copy_ the library to a flash drive?

You sure can.
Option #3.
It allows you to move to
any new location, flashdrive or otherwise.
