Calibre is a single user program and is only intended to be used on a local filesystem that isn't shared. But it seems that some successfully use calibre along with Dropbox and some other cloud sharing software.
I use Dropbox, and while I don't turn sync on and off as Adoby recommends, I am very careful to only have one computer running calibre at a time. It's been working for a couple of years now with no problems.
