How to add books from the local pc? drag & drop doesn't work.

Another question. how to add the existing library located at a remote location? when I add to config something like below, the app doesn't start.

/mnt/calibre/lib:/lib/

Make a /import mount and map it to a folder on your host so you import books from.

This may be more of a calibre question than a linuxserver question, per se, but what sort of files go in this directory. I have exported from my main machine and have files like part-0001.calibre-data etc. I've moved it to a directory on the host and shared it as /import, but I don't see anything upon relaunching calibre.
