A quick google says this is indeed all it can do, but all of these articles seem to be quite old, and knowing the insane rate Calibre updates come out, they may no longer be accurate. Can it do more now? And if so how?
I know another way to do this is to just run twelve instances of the CLI server, which frankly seems a very inelegant way of doing things, but also raises another question. Can the GUI version and the CLI version of Calibre coexist? i.e. if I have the CLI version serving a library, but then use the GUI version to edit a book in the same library will things break, or will it update without a hitch?

Just start each of them with a separate port and Libraryname
Code:
"C:\Program Files\Calibre2\calibre-server.exe" --port 8083 --with-library C:\Users\yyyy\MainLib
IMHO Less Libraries is better. A Virtual Library may accomplish much of what you need.
Reasons to keep separate:
Structure (columns or allowed values) differences
Content filter by audience (PG13,...)
non-Shareable content (vs public domain)
