If your library is not excessively large and if you don't convert or import many books at any one time, you can put your library on a thumb drive.
I keep my master copy of my library on my Windows10 tablet's secondary drive, which is a microSD card. Most library operations are responsive enough for my use. Adding books is a bit slow, as is converting books, but I do that somewhat rarely (2-4 per week).
Whether you use a thumb drive, external HD, or external SSD, it is still highly recommended that you keep a complete copy as a backup somewhere else. Murphy's Law rules. Just as carrying your umbrella seems to prevent it raining, having a backup seems to prevent loss of the primary file(s). Failure to carry the umbrella and failure to have a good backup tend to lead to having a bad day.
