Hi @john john ,

You can un-sync a SharePoint document library via the following steps.

• Click on a little blue cloud icon in your computer’s taskbar
• From the pop-up that appears, click on Help & Settings -> Settings
  
• On the next screen, you will see a list of all the places you synchronize. To un-sync, just click on Stop Sync next to the location you want to stop synchronizing.
  

Files in the local OneDrive folder will be automatically deleted after un-sync. Absolutely, they won't be deleted in SharePoint document library.
