You can have a backup copy of your library in Dropbox. You should not have the copy you are opening with calibre in cloud storage. It's not a matter of if you will have problems, it's when you will have problems.

The safest procedure going by many posts in these forums:

Keep your library in local storage syncing to the cloud
Stop syncing your calibre library
Open calibre, make your changes and close calibre
Restart syncing your library.
