To add a Calibre library to Dropbox, open Calibre and select "Switch/create Library" from the menu, select an empty folder in your Dropbox folder, and choose the "Move current library to new location" option. Please wait until Dropbox has fully synchronised your Calibre library before attempting to open it in CalibreBox to avoid missing covers and failed book downloads.

The process works the same for OneDrive, just using the OneDrive folder on your computer.

Advanced users can also create a symlink or junction inside of the Dropbox folder pointing to the Calibre library folders.
