I think that it would be difficult to only have calibre as a headless server. Easier or even necessary to also have calibre with the normal GUI so you can add books, convert and update metadata and so on. So to me, having a headless server more or less means that you also have to have a normal calibre install with the GUI on another computer. And somehow copy, share (not recommended) or sync between the two. If A and C are on local filsystems, then B must be on a network share.
