I am using 0.6.13 (and I am a newbie but posting only after searching through the forum)

After I import and add metadata to the books, the books are stored individually in the folders where I made a library folder.
In fact, I already have library organized in certain fashion on my HDD. All I want Calibre to do is, import that book in Calibre database and link to the book in already existing library (instead of importing the file)
Also, once cover is imported, how about renaming that file same as the name of the book?

I wonder if this is possible (if its possible, didactic instructions on working it out are most welcome)

Many thanks.
