This is a good news.

The fact you were luky doesn't mean there isn't a bug inside the program :-)

Here comes the program. Many books I have imported, while different, have the same tag. For example I have found a lot of "UNREGISTERE CHP Professional" duplicates.
CRC32 + FILESIZE gives a
100% accurate match on duplicates. It is very easy to implement, file size is already there and CRC32 can be 1) Calculated with a simple function available in phyton 2) Inherited form the file system which should have CRC32 stored in file header (if I am not wrong)

As time + date are already stored there is a simpler solution: sort the books by import date and then bulk add files.
