You can't. Only one user can make changes between syncs and each library needs to be at the current maximum size. I agree with you - a sync tool needs to be calibre-aware, and it would be useful. I'd like to be able to work on a small library (for speed), then add the small one to the main one, once all the metadata is correct. A separate utility could do this. All it takes is someone with the time to write it. (It shocks me to think that two users could get together and combine their libraries with such a tool.)
