I remember hearing about this but wasn't sure if it was still a problem.

If your travel laptop had a card reader, you can get a memory card to put your Calibre library on.

My travel laptop is running Linux (Mint MATE) from a 256gb flash drive, which is more space than the internal drive has. And it freezes up when I have more than about a dozen tabs open in the browser; maybe it has 2gb of RAM but maybe not.
It has a card reader but then I'd be dealing with switching the card back & forth between that and my desktop.
"Put all the ebook in Calibre" is on the someday list of to-do items. I have over a decade's worth of ebooks scattered across three drives; it'd be nice to put them all in one place and adjust the metadata and so on. But that's separate from "want a convenient hand-held device to throw 2-5 fanfic novels a week onto, with occasional binges of 20 shorter ebooks."
