Although calibre has an update checker, the Update Available dialog has a checkbox to ignore updates.

Assuming everything works for you, and you don't need a new feature or bugfix from a newer version, there is no reason to bother updating. Many people don't update for months or years, and that is completely OK.

If that is your only objection to using calibre to store the books you aren't reading right now, then I really think you should reconsider.
