my goal: create an empty library, like a brand new install, without deleting my existing libraries.
then, i plan on importing them again, to weed out the dupes efficiently.
the kicker: i can't figure out how to get an empty library without copying the existing files.
i am not looking to restructure the library. i don't want to tweak anything - mad props to Kovid and all his work. I just am having difficulties applying it to my (possibly) unique situation.

There is an arrow
It is right next to the Library icon
On this arrow
There are choices.
The first is to Create (or switch).
If you create, it will be empty
Now use the same arrow to switch back to your existing Library
Now you can Select some books
and Right-click.
There are choices.
Choose the one that says 'Copy to Library'
