Generally, I go into the search with an idea of what I want to read. At times, I've typed random page numbers into the library goto page and picked a book off the page that popped up. I very seldom have a TBR list and when I do have one, it is less that 10 books (generally, my TBR is the latest Baen bundle I've downloaded but not started reading).

For me, the calibre server is more of a demo of what calibre can do for you. I've also used Excel with an exported calibre catalog in CSV format for it's search and sort capability. I've also used calibre's select a random book option -- it's in my library, I probably want to re-read it.
