Is there any way to fix this Calibre nightmare?

Okay, so I had a fabulous Calibre library set up. It was all perfect--all the cover images I liked best, only about 50 tags so I could find everything I needed really easily, etc. But then I realized it was starting to take over my computer! So I moved it to a flashdrive.

When I installed Calibre Portable onto the flashdrive, I moved my previous Calibre library into the new Calibre Portable library instead of picking "Add Books" in Calibre itself. And then I opened Calibre and realized I would still have to use the "Add Books" feature. So I did that and added all the books in my library.

When my library was finished loading, it was like all the changes I'd made to my library were gone. But not only that, there are double the number of books. Half of them aren't actually books--as far as I can tell, they're just the settings I had previously! Is there a way to merge these together? The idea of fixing/deleting 500 books is making me want to cry, lol.
