You don't have to keep the book files in the calibre library, it can used as catalogue with the book files saved elsewhere. The Save to Disk (and Send to Device) settings in Preferences provide a lot flexibility in the naming of folders and book files that are exported from calibre. Once exported the format files can be removed from the library.

Many of calibre features are available at the command line, some don't rely on the existence of a library e.g. format conversion. See http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/cli/cli-index.html

The book viewer and book editor can also be used independently of having a library.
