Is it possible to add a function to delete the book from library but keep the file in the computer?

Whenever a book is removed from Calibre it will be deleted from the Calibre Library folder as well.
When first starting out you should point to a new empty folder for the Caliber library to use exclusively. The books that go into this folder should be placed there by Calibre and should only be accessed by using the Calibre interface.
When you place a book in Calibre a copy is created that goes into the Calibre library folder. Your original is still wherever you had it to begin with (your source folder). When you remove a book from the Calibre Library the book is deleted from the Calibre library folder but not from your original source folder.
