CC does not support USB OTG, so the answer is "maybe".

CC can see your external USB storage only if your device automounts the disk, or you have rooted your device and can manually mount USB OTG devices. In the latter case (rooted) there are some apps that might help.

However, even after mounting your external disk CC will be able to see it only as a Cloud "Local library". It cannot see it as a native CC library. See our FAQ I have a copy of a calibre library on an SD card. Can CC use it?
