Can't imagine that could not be intended...
Read the FAQ (click Help in Calibre).
That is your problem. Calibre is Single user (instance) plus it is a Hybrid of DB and file system. Delays can be devastating. 2 Users making changes at the same time (the DB is in memory for performance. it can not know someone changed a copy behind the scenes)
Running the content server is the safe way to share in a family.
