AND
If the other Library is on a different computer,
1) Create temp library on the existing computer. and do as DNSB said to that,
2)then sneakernet the Library folder over to the new PC and Copy to Library with that on in view.

FWIW I have had good luck (YMMV) Skipping the above by PULLING the books from the source PC over the wired LAN using Copy to Library with the remote being the viewed Library (Do not try and do other Metadata stuff, that is where I have had lockups)
