DRM-free EPUB from Kobo doesn't save in ADE library

I just used a free offer (KOBO 2012 Book Club) to obtain a book. I don't know whether this fact is significant, but it says on the kobobooks.com site that it is DRM-free EPUB. I want to put the EPUB in my ADE library. When I click on the button "DOWNLOAD EPUB", ADE is opened as I would expect and the book shows up in ADE's Reading View. When I switch to the Library View, however, it's not there. Going back to the Reading View, it gives me a book that I was previously reading there.

I had purchased books from Kobobooks.com using this same method before and I don't recall having any problem. They were, however, "Adobe DRM EPUB" format.

Am I missing something? Is there some other steps I can go through to get it into ADE library? I am able to download it through the Kobo Desktop using the "Sync" option, but I really want a portable backup like I do for all the other books I've purchased.
