Library folders

Hi ,
I'm just new to calibre so please forgive me if questions are easy .
I'm using Itunes set to leave books and music on their folders while adding them to it ao I left unchecked the same setting on Calibre , as per FAQ, but noticed that when importing book on library they are copied below the library folder I selected at installation .
Is there a way of not duplicating them ?
thanks

Any book added or imported into calibre's library will be copied into the library's data structure. There is no way around this if you want to use calibre to manage your ebooks.
