Calibre seemed like such fantastic software that I'm actually probably going to try again - the alternative is going through a ton of LIT files by hand. But I'd like to isolate what this problem was, so as to avoid it in the future (and obviously, im going to back up the books which had yet to be imported to Calibre, this time  )

The only times that calibre deletes anything is when you ask it to delete a book and when you change the metadata on a book. On the latter ocassion, the book is first copied to a new folder and then the original folder is deleted.
What exactly is deleted? The library folder, the metadata.db file, all the individual book folder? Only the book files?
