Try to copy your ebooks folder - the remote library - to your local disk. Then have Calibre make a new library on the local disk. Open that (empty) library, and try adding books from the folder you copied over.

Running a Calibre library on a remote or shared drive often works until it doesn't. It will fail eventually. Fine for a one-way backup, except google drive, never google, but that is all. It is likely the book files themselves are still OK.
