I would prefer to use an android version of calibre, but since it is at the moment not available I've found a way which in part solves my problem.
I create with calibre a .bib file of the archive, I transform the paths from absolute to relative and so I can access the catalogue using a bibtex android app.
There are some issues with this approach:
1) I've to periodically update the .bib file
2) I've to manually transform the paths to relative ones (maybe paths should be relative by default)
3) I've to tell calibre not to export comments because most of them (downloaded from the internet when I've used the ISBN metadata search function) are rich of html and special characters which transform the generated .bib file in an unusable one.
The first two issues are easily managed with minimal manual intervention, but the last one should require a function (maybe a plugin) which transform all the comments in the the library in plain test removing in a smart way all the characters which may create issues in the .bib file.
Do you know if there is something I can use to do that (I've already developed a plugin which scan all my library, but I don't know how to check the correctness of the comment data).
Thank you,
Xwang
