I keep a copy of my Calibre library on Dropbox. My real library is on my local system, and I have a simple rsync script to make the Dropbox library the same as my local library, so anyone can do anything to the Dropbox library, and it will get fixed next time I run the rsync.
I use Calibre Companion on my Android phone, and it works very well. There was a problem a while back with new installs of the app, which I ran into when I got a new phone, but there has been a workaround published way back that worked fine for me - unless there is a new problem that I don't know about.
If you share you library, you need to be slightly careful about writing to it from more than one user. Mine is not often written to by others, and I've never had a problem except when a friend who didn't know what he was doing somehow erased all the books. Good think I had my copy. That's why I do the rsync all the time to add books. Nobody else should be adding books without telling me, but my rsync command first does a dry run, so I can see what changes will be made.
