This is what I do
  • Add books to an Intake library
  • Adjust/correct the metadata
  • Use the Find Duplicates plugin->Find Library duplicates option to check for duplicates in the Intake and Target libraries
  • If there are any duplicates I use Copy to library (delete after copy) to move them to a Duplicates library, which I sort out manually.
  • Then I use Copy to library (delete after copy) to move the non-duplicates to the Target library.
.
By default the Copy to library tool is in the Book list context menu, you can add it to other toolbars and menus via Preferences->Toolbars.

I note you keep your library on a network drive. Have you read this FAQ item from the User Manual ==>> I am getting errors with my calibre library on a networked drive/NAS? ?
