@BetterRed : Okay. I think that makes sense. If I can get my head around that, then making a catalogue only would suffice, except I do need to be able to read the epubs using Calibre (or some reader). The other formats are not a problem. Cool! I'll look more into this. Cheer!

@DaltonST : I thought that Calibre was duplicating my files somewhere of it's choice and I wasn't able to find in the preferences how to reassign the drive or directory into which Calibre puts the copied files, so I thought it was set, and thus the library had to be on the same drive as Calibre. obviously, I'm wrong, so I'll try and figure that out, too. As for separate libraries, potentially, as there are a few things I collect/read/research, but they will still be huge libraries. My Lovecraft-related collection is well over 5000 entires, and my comic collection is well over 25,000. The Smaller stuff would definitely work though (the Ethnomusicology (2000) and the Gothic Studies (900) and then the stragglers...) Nice! I'll see about splitting things up, then, if that works. Perhaps the problem is that I was just hoping to put everything in one place and not have to relocate anything, so I apologise if I'm just being lazy.

Excellent! Thanks again everyone! Very helpful responses! Cheers! I really appreciate the assistance!
