I'd like to back up my iPhoto library, but in my Pictures directory, I see "Library" and "iPhoto Library" directories. Are both needed?

I'm wondering if one was a holdover from iPhoto 5 ...

I'm not sure why there's a "library" directory in your pictures folder. To answer your question, all of your pictures should be in the "iphoto library" folder.

Thanks. As a test, I moved everything but "iPhoto Library" out, and iPhoto was still happy, so I think that is my answer.
