* In the ''[[The Elder Scrolls]]'' verse, the Plane of Oblivion occupied by the Deidra Prince Hermaeus Mora is like this - an entire plane of reality filled with a limitless number of books with identical, unlabeled covers, supposedly containing every bit of Forbidden Knowledge and every secret, ever, at all. You can obtain one book from this plane, the Oghma Infinium, in ''[[The Elder Scrolls: Arena|Arena]]'', ''[[The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall|Daggerfall]]'', ''[[Oblivion]]'', and ''[[Skyrim]]''. In all cases, it basically acts as [[Rare Candy]], giving you a large boost in a number of stats and vanishing when read.
* ''[[World of Warcraft]]'': The Library section of the Karazhan instance has bookshelves as tall as staircases, as well as books strewn all along the floor which can be picked up and used to give you one of a few buffs, depending on the tome.
** In addition to that, there are at least two libraries which might fit this trope even though they are physically small because they are larger on the inside than the outside, and/or because they have no normal doors and can only be reached by teleportation.
