* ''[[Fables]]'' contains a massive library so large that the foyer is large enough to be a seat of government and contain objects of mythical size (Excalibur has literally become as big as the legend of Arthur). Oddly even though it belongs to all sorts of magical creatures it's never implied to be magical in any way except for its extreme size.
* The Library of Dream in ''[[The Sandman]]'' is full of those books that were conceived by their authors but never written or completed. This not only includes things like [[G. K. Chesterton]]'s ''The Man Who Was October'', or [[P. G. Wodehouse|PG Wodehouse]]'s ''[[Canon Welding|Psmith and Jeeves]]'', but an awful lot of books like ''That romantic comedy sci-fi thriller I used to think about on the bus to work''.

** Appears again in Superman's trip to Limbo in ''[[Final Crisis]]''. Except this time, Ultraman somehow manages to lift it and learn about {{spoiler|Mandrakk}}.
* The library of the Crystal Ballroom in ''Nexus'' contains all the historical memory of (at least the known) universe.
