I believe that the database backend now is thread safe.
There is a thread about multiuser calibre.

The major goals of this new backend are:
Improve performance
Be thread safe (thereby eventually enabling multi-user calibre)
Maintain compatibility of database format with the previous backend. This means that you can freely switch between the old and new backends.
Also, there is a new cover grid based on the new backend, see attached screenshot. You can turn it on by clicking the button in the bottom right corner of the calibre main window that has an icon of a grid on it.
