Exporting library to put into another computer?
How do you export books to put into another computer when you get it besides loading all the books onto your reader? Or wuld that be the easiest way?

How big is your Calivre library?
IFf your library is smaller than 64GB then get a thumb drive/flash drive/SD card and USB adaptor, copy your library to to the flash drive and then plug it into your new computer and copy the library to your new computer.
If your library is larger than 64GB then do you have a LAN? Can you find out how to make one?
You can also copy your library from one computer to another over a LAN.

I put all the books onto my USB flash drive and now Calibre doesn't show any of the books!! I'm not a computer genius so I need step by step instructions on how to keep the books on this computer and copy them so I can put them onto the new computer when I get it. HELP!!

You probably were not precise in following the directions?
Copy the entire Library folder (standard name: Calibre Library. but cold be any name you chose), not just the books.

Did you tell Calibre the new location part?
