My daily backup strategy is to backup the calibre library directory with a sync program. The library has the same books in it that your backup has in it (but with a different name - the name that calibre stores them in), plus the metadata.db file(which has the recipes). The sync program is set to do a one-way sync.
It scans the files in the calibre source library, then only copies the new ones into the destination directory (and deletes any deleted books). I also backup metadata.db separately (it's small, so I keep six copies). Sync backups go through the LAN to another computer/drive. I keep a separate monthly backup using a more conventional backup program.
