Can you make two libraries with Calibre?

[Grendel Rex]

I just bought my first ereader last week, it was on sale and my mother was interested in it so I bought another for her birthday next month. I want to load some books onto it for her before I give it to her and I'll probably be doing it for her in the future since she doesn't have a computer and isn't very tech savvy.
I'm currently using tags to be able to keep her books seperate from mine but I was wondering if there's a way to make a seperate library so that I can either see a list of my books or hers.

2 or 22 (but do you really need 22 )


On the Library Icon (inside Calibre), right-click: Create/Switch:
This will make a New or switch to an existing Library

NB There is an option to use your existing Library structure (useful if you have custom columns)

Thanks, just figured it out, not sure what I did the first time but I had a new library with my list of books in it but only the titles, the book files had all disappeared.
