slb · 01-25-2026, 10:22 AM

I have a main Calibre library with multiple custom columns. The new library has less and different columns.

How can I export the ebooks with metadata that I want from the old library?
Meaning is it possible to like select the columns from which I want the data (the same columns)?
I don't want the extra columns from the old library to be created in the new. I also don't want that metadata.

Any help?
