I can't help you with retrieving your existing library, but I can confirm that you CAN run Calibre on the same library from multiple OS's, if you're careful. I have my library on an encrypted external hard drive, and although I can't speak for OSX, I run it from Linux and Windows, and I've only run into problems when I was doing something foolish, like peeking in the library folder. (Don't do this)

If you run the Check Library utility periodically, it can warn you of any issues that you need to correct. Keeping a backup of your books is a good idea too.

Calibre will never delete your library on its own. If the library no longer exists, something external to Calibre caused the problem.
