The series follows the sisters' moments of joy and sadness, usually interspersed with days of boredom when again no customers come to visit the library. It starts out as a typical [[Moe]] show, but after a few episodes switches gears toward a much more emotional experience, when the girls' interaction with the outside world leads to a string of highs and lows in the relationship between them and with other people. There are a lot of miracles along the way, both small and large.

''[[Kokoro Library]]'' started out as a [[Manga]] by Nobuyuki Takagi, and was adpoted into an anime adaptation in 2001, directed by Koji Masunari, who is perhaps better known for his work on the ''[[Read or Die (Anime)|Read or Die]]'' [[OVA]] and ''[[Kamichu|Kamichu!]]''. Of special note is the soundtrack, composed by Hisaaki Hogari, with its lovely piano-filled themes which feature prominently throughout the latter half of the series.
