So effectively as far as Calibre is concerned, it's a completely normal, non-networked, non-autosynced drive.
I have just tested the start-up script and can confirm autosync is stopped for the duration of Calibre running. So no closer to a solution then ;^<

In reference to the above comments:
When the android device accesses Calibre I assume Dropbox could be syncing?
If so, lets say Dropbox is accessing one of the libraries that is not accessible to the android device ... does this mean it is still safe for the android device to access another Calibre library at the same time? I mean, just because it is a different library, I would think another device accessing Calibre (the same program) at the same time, could mess up the sync with Dropbox and whoops! there goes your eBook into Neverland!

Just so you know ... I am not a technical person and get weird looks about comments I sometimes make.
