You can use Portable to access any Library elsewhere, IT JUST WON'T REMEMBER.

It will 'remember them' i.e. they will be shown in the Quick Switch menu, but it always starts with the library created with the Welcome wizard… even if it's renamed.

The server can be started from calibre portable, I don't know if it's fully functional, but I can't see why not.
One
possible difference is that you can't easily share the one install between multiple users with each having their own configuration folders containing preference settings, e.g.
Code:
C:\Users\Jack Frost\AppData\Roaming\calibre
C:\Users\Mary Baker\AppData\Roaming\calibre
I've never wanted to do that, hence the speculation.
