** Bonus points for Patchouli, since she's not just the librarian, but also the author of an unspecified proportion of the books in her library, and probably the overwhelming majority of the magic books in the library, given the esoteric rules for wizardry in the ''Touhou'' 'verse.
** It is also worth noting, just to get a sense of its dimensions, that in the stage you fight in the Voile Library, it is possible for you have a roughly five-minute-long aerial battle over the bookshelves traveling in one direction without ever reaching the end.
*** Fanon has run away with the notion of Voile as a repository for nearly every book every written. Case in point: the doujin anime ''Musou Kakyou: A Summer Day's Dream'' goes as far as to depict the library with a volume of ''[http://rainbowsphere.oniichannoecchi.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/snapshot20090108231943.jpg Wikipedia]{{Dead link}}'' in stock.
** Canonically, it's size is unspecified but large, it mostly has grimoires, many written by Patchouli, and there's a handful of random books from the outside world. Considering that grimoires are illegible to anyone that can't use them, the library is completely useless to the vast majority of characters.
* The Dark People from ''[[The Longest Journey]]'' seek to obtain every book ever written, which they store in their library, located on a moving island whose location is a secret for but a few.
