Ooh I like booleans, but I like even more making my own.

Did you look at the file size before and after you deleted?

If the file size was the same then all you probably deleted was just the icon in the library:

If Corridors was the same as Corridors (2) but had those 6 items deleted using the Delete button indicated, then looking at both files in Win Explorer, would show both files as the same size

(actually they are not, as one is the early "Corridors" Object Library, and "Corridors (2)" is actually a later one and those 6 files are later additions.

 

In fact I never EVER use that delete button, what I do is create a new library file/category, save each item that I want to keep, adding it to the new category until I have all the ones I want and then if I don't want the others at all, I'd delete the bigger category.

But I don't think I've done that since I first learned that deleting using that delete button inside a library doesn't delete anything but the pic. 

I use my "create a new category method" if I want to save some files seperately from the rest, usually to give to people, or put up for freebies etc

I hardly ever delete anything, unless it's a non-working object, or an embarrasingly bad material maybe...

Which is why I have such a huge objects library:

And my materials library is even bigger!!

Um... just wondering ArtByMivan, why do you need to delete vers 7?
