It showed that there were some extra titles and authors (which were library2's books).

When I started using more then one library I had to stop using the batch file to point to the library and metadata.db file because it caused problems when trying to switch libraries. Since I really didn't care I just changed my setup.
Now all I point to is a common configuration so every machine I'm on is using the same plugins and settings. I just install calibre on each machine pointing to the same library (in my dropbox).
I think itimpi's suggestion about a different batch file for each library might be best. I wouldn't be surprised though if the copy between library had problems.
Good Luck.
