E-books in more than one reader-programme?

Hello
I'm primarily using Calibre when managing e-books on my tablet. But I have been wondering whether my purchased e-books are saved twice since I also have another e-book-programme on the tablet - each programme have a library with many of the same titles. Hopefully both programmes show the same file, but if that is not the case maybe I should delete the other programme. As far as I understand e-books are not very large files, but still it would be silly to use twice as much space.

The apps I have experience from allow you to add books from any folder on the tablet, so the same ebook file can be shared by several apps. But I suppose that may be different for different apps? And also how you add the books to the apps.

Typically, if you use calibre, I would expect that you transfer the files to one folder tree on the tablet and use them from there. That is how I do it, only one copy, even if I can read the books using several different apps.
