Thanks SO much! And, I'm writing all of my books to optical disks!
Optical disks introduce their own issues. If you back directly to CD/DVD, the files become Read Only. If you first Zip the Library, Unzip leaves the Library status alone.
Right-click the Library Icon: Export backs up your Librarie(s) AND Settings folder into spanned zips. copy those to DVD.

BTW store those DVD's in the dark, the dye can fade.

The 'Offsite' point is relevant. Fire, Flood, Tornado, can remove the most diligent backup in moments.
