- stop calibre.
- rsync script copies changes from calibre libraries to the Calibre Libraries folder in Dropbox
- start dropbox, sync all changes using the redundant clone

Another method is to use symbolic link. Database folder is outside dropbox, a symbolic folder is in Dropbox.
You can keep dropbox running to sync other folders. The Symbolic folder only gets synced when you pause and resume Dropbox.
