You shouldn't see this as a column, though it is a metadata field. It cannot be deleted, as it is a built-in.
It's purpose is for storing info such as the isbn of a book, as well as urls that are associalted with the book and special links to bookstores that may have sold you the book, etc. It shouldn't show up in the Book details unless the book actually has an id with a clickable link, and you can right-click on it in the Tag Browser (it's called Identifiers there) to "Hide category Identifiers". (You can also do the same to "Hide column Identifiers" -- if there had been such a column) |

![]() Id is the (tie break) link between the Title folder in the library author/book title (42)/ book author/book title (128)/ book You can have 2 variations (under certain settings) of the same title There is no ID column in the GUI There are references to it in various details Read the FAQ about NOT messing with the structure of the library |

The IDs, id and Book id 'columns' are shown on book information panel - press 'I' - can't change them there tho'.
There's also the uuid - also can't change it BR |
