Every library has different column widths

I have six libraries and every one seems to have different column widths despite having the same columns. Where can I adjust this either per library or for all libraries and have it stay the same tomorrow when I next open Calibre? Thank you.

The View Manager plugin does this. You can create several different views and switch between them with just a click. And it will retain the column widths.

Columns are Per Library.
You can drag the divider. Right click and use the adjust width menu:<options>
Switch Create Library has the option 'Copy structure....' This makes an empty Library with ALL the current settings and columns. Then All you need to do is select all the books in the odd Library and :copy to Library: <new, beautiful library, then delete the old--empty one>
