If you can redownload the existing books with a new account, I would suggest using the same AdobeID that you have authorized your laptop with, just to keep things simple. In general if you don't want to have to think about it, you are best off with one and only one AdobeID that all your computers/devices/and books are tied to.

One other question and thank you for being so helpful. I tried to download a library book on a laptop (since my desktop was causing problems), this worked fine in the past. I got this error message:
Error getting license

License server communication problem: E_LIC_ALREADY_FULFILLED_BY_ANOTHER_USER
Most likely you are trying to download a book, that you have already opened on your desktop (either using the same .acsm file). Your desktop computer is activated to a different (anonymous) user than your notebook (your AdobeID). This is another reason why you want to keep everything with one AdobeID.
