another - rather clunky - way is to install a folder sync app, which can download and sync/mirror any dropbox subfolder (+ its subfolders) to your device.
the android (free) dropbox) app frustratingly only allows one file at a time download to device , but a sync app can be applied to an author subfolder in the dropbox copy of your calibre library, or to the whole library if you have device space.
i use the paid for folder sync app but the free version is pretty good also, just lacks a filter option.
for parts of my library which are quite static i.e. pdf collections , i like doing a one off one way mirror from my dropbox calibr library copy to an sd card in a tablet. i've done Then free apps like adobe acrobat are quite good at auto finding , listing, searching through pdfs on device
i think folder sync works with all the leading cloud solutions
