The Library (夢幻図書館, Mugen Toshokan, Dream Library) is one of the main areas accessible from The Nexus.
The Library's portal can be activated by going onto Urotsuki's computer, selecting the tools icon and selecting the TXT option, then choosing the first option.
Features
The walls of the Library are covered in a nighttime cityscape and contains sixteen rows of bookshelves and two couches. From these bookshelves are 31 different books that repeatedly slide in and out. When you interact with them, you are able to read them. They contain various images and literature of different forms, such as recipes, poetry and a diary.
The 2nd book on the shelf to the left of the door will take you to the Maiden Outlook, and the last book in the 2nd shelf down from the door on the right will take you to the Apartments. (As of 0.99h, this book will only appear after having visited the apartments atleast once)
One of the lower bookshelves has a ladder leaning on it. If you interact with the back of this shelf directly across from the ladder, you will be transported to Word World.
Equipping the Glasses effect here will make a book appear on the (previously empty) southern most bookshelf that transports you to the Eyeball Archives
As of version 0.103c the entrance to the area with randomly placed bookshelves has returned. You must interact with the book right under the ladder. First you will see one of the 7 pictures,and then teleported to the room with 7 random background and blue creature, resembles cat and rabbit together. One of the room will be empty with the bright light. Interacting with center of it you will teleport to the forest with the waterfall, and the same creature, which is now black. Going up and pressing Z will slide the screen up, to show full view of the waterfall. Also you can sit on the log. Interacting with the most down-left corner and the creature at the other rooms will teleport you to location with bookshelves, where is the same creature walking around. It reacts almost all effects:

Boy - creature becomes pink and start moving towards her.

In all bookshelves here, except one, covered in blood, is books, which you may read. But there is 2 hidden books. First is located in the shelf in the right from entrance. There is already one book here, but equipping Child effect reveal another one, in the right side of the shelf. Second located it the blood-covered bookshelf. To read it you must equip Crossing effect. That book features inscription "Dream is endless" with the blood splat at the left.
Previous Features
One book will transport you to an area that is mostly empty but surrounded by bookshelves, inhabited by a non-active Shadow Lady that reacts to any effect. The second bookshelf from the entrance on the left will transport you to an area with a waterfall and an NPC that also reacts to any effect. However, equipping the Glasses effect results in the Glasses getting shattered, unequipping the effect. If you try to equip the Plaster Cast effect, you will instead equip the Marginal effect, even if you have not found it yet. If you equip the child effect, a readable book will appear in one of the shelves that transports you to a room that is similar to those in the Hospital with an Urotsuki doll in it. If you exit the room, you will end outside of Aojiru's room in the Hospital and cannot return.
Interacting with the doll transports you to an area with two bookshelves, an Urotsuki doll that mimics your equipped effect and twenty dolls in four colors. One of the bookshelves contains a book that shows an empty white page. Interacting with the Urotsuki doll transports you back to the previous room. Going on a rampage with the chainsaw will play occasional laughter and change the background, based on how many dolls you have destroyed. If all dolls are gone, you will be transported to a walkway and the screen will be tinted red. A clown will be chasing you if you should wait too long and going one step back at any point of this way will wake you up. Going ahead will take you to familiar faces. Afterwards you will end up in front of the Urotsuki doll. This event has since been removed.
There is another library-like section that is accessible from the Developer Room and contains books about the effects. These books were once accessible from the library and were also removed.

There are a lot of gears in this factory. Naturally, they spin, those wonderful cogs. However they never last for long, they're quite brittle. I see them turning, and I feel a little somber. Nobody else seemed to, but I noticed one of them. I watched it turn carefully, it's been spinning with vigor for 2 or 3 years. As a result, I started naming them one by one. Initially, the other employees found it bizarre, but before I knew it, they too started addressing the cogs by name. I'm sure they are doing it with pride. I know that I’m proud of the work I’ve done.

My hands are trembling. The scar on them burns painfully. It became a keloid that keeps throbbing. I can see it steadily getting worse. Someone, anyone, I'm begging you. I want this to end already. It hurts. It's so painful. Why. Why me? I see my reflection in the window. I look horrible. Every night I'm unable to sleep and then morning comes. It won't stop. Mother. Mother. Mom.
