I have a copy of my calibre library stored on a network share. Is it possible for CC to make a connection to that share to access the database that way? I'm only interested in readonly access (can also be enforced with a readonly login). CC already supports reading a copy that is stored on a cloud provider, so it's not much of a stretch to just consider a network share as another provider. As for remote access, I can vpn into my home network to access the share.

Thanks,
Robert
