The first and best advice is go and read the Manual.

Calibre blog

Now make a copy of your library rename it to say learn calibre then use that copy to learn how to do what you want, that way you never try new things with your good library.

Where in simple terms should I begin? Is there an editing metadata tutorial around?

Any help is greatly appreciated,

Thanks very much!
