So the other day I noticed my Calibre library was blank. No matter what I did I couldn't see any of the underlying books. I found in the documentation regarding a corrupt db so I had Calibre rebuild the library. After 4 days of chugging (~13k ebooks) I had my library back.
But, I had constructed some more metadata such as a field for when read (including date) and a field for "to read". I had also some virtual libraries where I had books for my kids age groups. All of this is no longer there :(.
Does anyone know what I need to do to get this back or is it the case when the db is rebuilt it goes back to stock db fields? Is there any way to either get them back now or protect against a possible future issue so I don't lose them?
