Working with 2 iPhoto libraries

I bought a new iMac and downloaded 4 months worth of pictures from my camera into the new iphoto in the new mac, and then deleted it from the camera.
I later decided to transfer the pictures from iphoto 09 in my old MBP. I copied the iphoto library from the MBP from a backup in an external drive and paste it in the pictures folder in the new iMac. It asked that i already have a folder called iphoto library and if i want to replace it or keep both. I clicked keep both and the computer renamed it "iPhoto library 2". I then opened iphoto and the computer told me that it needs to update the library. After it finished iphoto opened up and it has only the pictures from my old MBP but I can't seem to find the newer pictures that I had transfered to the iMac from the camera into the original library.
I still have both libraries in the pictures folder but I don't know how to find them in there. Can anyone please explain to me how to restore the events and pictures that I transfered from the camera?
