I use dropbox to sync the library from its home to my server-in-the-sky. On my server, I use monit to detect timestamp changes to the local calibre db. Monit restarts calibre. The restart script copies the db to /tmp to avoid simultaneous access problems and sets calibre's environment variable CALIBRE_OVERRIDE_DATABASE_PATH to tell calibre to use the db in /tmp.
