Nobody will tell you which books you can host and which you cannot.
You will be able to access your entire Ebook collection, anywhere and at any time. This means you will be able to read your ebooks on any device with an internet browser or standard Ebook reader application. The synchronised calibre library will be ‘served’ (made available on the web) using a program called COPS, which is able to serve a calibre library using a web based interface and also standard (ODPS) Ebook library interfaces. This synchronisation, using Google Drive, will help you to keep an up-to-date Calibre Library that has all your latest books, book covers and meta data on your Linux server. At your Linux server end, you will install a command line google drive client which will allow you to pull the synchronised Calibre library down to the server and keep up to date with any changes made on your local machine. In this way any changes you make to your Calibre library, now or in the future, will be automatically synchronised with cloud storage. The general idea is that you will create a Calibre library on your local computer (or perhaps you already have an existing Calibre library) and then synchronise it using Google Drive (or you can use a cloud storage provider of your choice, the concept is the same).
