So where are you going to manage the calibre library?
You can actually just use the command-line tools, see `calibredb add --recurse --one-book-per-directory` which can import the product of calibre's Save-to-disk feature. This will retain metadata recorded in the metadata.opf
Collaborators would run a local calibre instance, tweak the book record, save to disk and upload it to a shared OwnCloud instance.
You would run a script (cron/systemd/inotifywait) to periodically add newly-added book folders, and cleanup those files after they are added.
Then sync the calibre library to the server (assumes you cannot install custom software on the server) and let COPS handle it.
