We each had a local working calibre library in which we converted, edited etc. When an editor finished a book he/she put a copy of the book folder into an editor specific shared folder (e.g. fromJohn) on my machine, and then they updated #bookstatus from 'WIP' to 'Finished' on their machine.

At the end of the day, I would add the books in the editors' finished book folders (fromJohn, fromSatya) to a 'master' library, empty the editors' finished book folders and back it the 'master' library.

If anything needed exceptional treatment then that's what it got it.
