# Restoring Calibre From Backup
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `metadata.db` holds the library and `app.db` and `gdrive.db` contain the
 | 
						|
web/account information.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Place books directories in `/data/books/`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Place `metadata.db` in `/var/lib/calibre-web-db/`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Symlink `metadata.db` to the library:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
sudo ln -s /var/lib/calibre-web-db/metadata.db /data/books/metadata.db
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Place `app.db` and `gdrive.db` in `/var/lib/calibre-web/`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Restart Calibre:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
sudo systemctl restart calibre-web.service
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
