Is there a way to start the set-up without going online?
Sorry to be so stupid about these things
There is Calibre the Program and ther is the Calibre installer.
Download the appropriate Calibre installer to your stick.
Run the installer. Do not Launch.
Now place the copy of your Library folder (big, if it has 3000 books) where you eant it.
Now Start Calibre (the Program) and indicate the place where the library is ( or run the Welcome Wizard, from the Preferences Arrow).
