[QUOTE=theducks;3355594]1) you created "empty books' (metadata only) using Add Books. This would be a deliberate action, not accidental.

2) You used 'Removed Formats' to delete those 'Extra/left overs' after a conversion.

I don't recall accidentally doing this but this message just saved my library! Thank you - I discovered today suddenly none of the book data ONLY the covers and an .opf file (except three recent purchases) were in my library now - I thought I had lost everything, but I have a back up of the library - phew. Note: Always Back UP! LOL. thanks for th info though I didn't know what had happened.
