How in the holy hell do you delete a library? This is ridiculous!

I just want to delete a library from my homescreen, but I can't seem to find that option anywhere. I cannot believe it wouldn't occur to anyone that calls themselves a developer that a user WOULD NEED THE OPTION TO REMOVE A LIBRARY FROM THEIR HOMESCREEN.WTF?

Wow, I actually had to go into the var/lib/emby/root/default as root and rm -r the library. Then I had to go to the Dashboard, click on Scheduled Tasks, then 
click on Scan Metadata Folder, then click on Scan media library, delete my cookies, and restart emby. 

I really hope I've overlooked a simple option to do that because if not that's an atrociously bad design. I was 2 seconds away from just going back to using a regular old file server. I may yet if this is the type of experience I can expect with Emby.

@GeneralTHCYou just go to the library setup page and click the three dot menu options on the card or right click it and remove the library.

Bwahahaha! I'm dumber than a rock. 😳 I suspected I was way over thinking it. I don't see the three dot thing, but the right click thing definitely works. Thanks.

Would I be correct in assuming this leaves the media intact on disk and just drops the library from Emby only?
