Make copies and move.

I always keep two copies of my photographs, one on my hard drive and one on my external drive. When I first import a folder I want to copy and move the photo's in the library to another folder but can't find a way of doing it via the library. Can you help please.

You can probably do it by checking the Backup box on the import screen. However I think there are issues with method in that the backup does not copy your file structure.
I think a more elegant, and more secure way, to do this is to get some kind of cloning/copy program (for the Mac Carbon Copy Cloner, Super Duper, ChronoSync, for the PC I don't know but there are several) and just clone your photo library whenever you want. You can set all of these programs to just back up differences and keep an identical copy of your library on another drive.
