My Calibre Library is in my documents folder. I would like to know why this is not a good idea. It has been there ever since I started using Calibre. I don’t remember why but I assume that is what the default was. I really don’t remember the original installation but I have changed computers several times since I started using the program and never have had a problem. It gets backed up when I back up my documents.
