It wouldn't be silly to try to open the copied library with calibre just to be sure.

Next, put the SD card back into your device and open it with CC's "Local library" cloud connection. You can then transfer books at SD card speed, which (I think) will be around 1/3 to 1/2 second per book, the time it takes CC to update its database.
This is what I tried to describe doing in my original post.
