The Archives, The Kingkiller Chronicle by Patrick Rothfuss

I swear I've wanted to get here as much as Kvothe

There's a huge door in there and we have no idea what's behind them. Also one dude just lives in there

Death's library, The Discworld series by Terry Pratchett

Death’s library contains the life stories of every person, living or dead. They write themselves.

The Royal Academy Library, Ascendance of a Bookworm series by Miya Kazuki and You Shiina

It has cute magical rabbit library assistants that help the librarians/patrons with finding books, working circ desk, reshelving, securing the library, etc. On the surface, it's a school library focusing on materials for Royal Academy students and archives of research/curriculum material from its professors. Some other neat magical aspects of this library include automatic humidity management (to prevent moisture damage to documents), time-stopping shelves (to prevent old documents from rotting away), sunlight protection magic (keep natural lighting from large windows while protecting documents from light damage), magical lighting (will start showering down multi-colored lights to let students realise the time if they're too engrossed in reading), sound-dampening carpets, and instant floor cleaning. The protagonist is also helping invent new magic tools for the library including a function where books automatically teleport to their spot on the shelves. Explaining fully how amazing and critically important this library is to their world would be spoilers. There's a lot going on in certain hidden/forgotten about parts of this library. Let's just say when the symbol of a true king is possessing a certain divine magical book that acts as the keys to the country, knowledge is power. The author and protagonist are both extreme bookworms, so a lot of love went into the design and description of this magical library.

They have magic bunny robots that get books for you. Also it’s a low fantasy story about a librarian who dies and decides to reinvent the printing press in the medical world she lives in. There’s also political intrigue I guess.

It’s a series all about books and libraries, and told from the pov of a librarian who died and decided to reinvent free public libraries and printing presses and books in a fantasy world

Highbrary aka Library of Congress, Alcatraz vs the Evil Librarians by Brandon Sanderson

It’s just the library of congress like from real life except secretly it’s the central stronghold of the network of evil librarians that rules the world as we measly humans know it to be. It’s funny. The book is good. That is all thank you and goodnight

The library of congress is the home base for the librarians in the book series. It not only is the normal library of congress building, but there is also a tunnel system underneath that houses the more magical items that normal people are not allowed to use.

Nuclear power

Some of you need to learn the difference between "ideologically desirable end-point" and "best option for reducing suffering at this current moment considering present conditions"

Or, if you'd prefer me to phrase this as an analogy: if somebody is bleeding out and you're trying to stop the bleeding, you do not have time to worry about whether the medical supplies you're using were made with sustainable materials
