That tells me that dropbox doesn't contain the actual calibre library. If the library were in dropbox then all the book files would be there too.

Are you hand-making a separate copy of your library that you sync to dropbox? Perhaps you are using some kind of sync program to keep the copy in dropbox up-to-date, and that program isn't copying the books?

EDIT: Another thought: the library might be damaged. Run calibre's check library command to see if things are as they should be (Library / Library maintenance / Check library).
