Calibre Portable
If I "export" my library onto a flash drive, will it be removed it from my hard drive? Or is the export feature just a copy of the files and structures?

Export is a copy of All Libraries and you User Settings.
The original is still there. |

Yay! I wasn't looking forward to attempting to had create a library filled with tweaks, custom columns and icon behaviors that doesn't seem to translate when I copy the metadata and JSON files.

One last thing....will it run independently to the one on my hard drive? I can't seem to get the flash file to run independently and not hijack the one on my hard drive.
Goal: 2 platforms running simultaneously one a working library, the other hosts the overflow books. I am tired of creating new libraries on my hard drive just to see what is on them. |

You just cant make it REMEMBER where the are/were (which can hinder moving books with Copy to Library) |

You can't have two instances of calibre running at the same time; there is a semaphore used to prevent that possibility.
