add books to calibre without copying?

Is it possible to add ebooks to the calibre database without copying the files to a calibre 'library"? I already have all of my ebooks organized on my harddrive. It seems silly - and redundant - to have all of those files copied to another location just for calibre to interact with them. Can the program not just use the files I already have in the location in which they are currently stored? I have looked at the online user manual (which was no help there) as well as all of the preference settings, but unless I am missing it, I can't see anyway to do this.
