When I started using calibre, I saved a .CSV (authors and title) from an existing Excel spreadsheet, and then used the
Import List plugin to create 'books' in an Intake library from the .CSV file. I then edited the metadata in the library - subject tags, publisher, series etc before moving the 'books' to the target library.
When I get a new paper book, I add an empty book (Shift+Ctrl+E) with author, title, and series data (if any) and give it #admin-tags of "paper book" and "_new" and add the other metadata, publisher, pubdate, subject tags etc.
allow entry of ISBN when adding empty book.
Downside - calibre won't fetch the book from the shelf - yet
