Calibre Server - read only?

I am setting up the headless calibre server on my machine. Is there a way to make that readonly? I just don't want people to be able to add/dlete books or metadata.

The calibre server does not allow adding/deleting/editing operations.

Can the calibre server be configured to detect changes to the metadata and reload itself when they occur, since it can't make changes itself?

The server does detect changes to metadata.db and reload itself.
