Features and Overview
A Link to the Past
In A Link to the Past, the House of Books is located south of Kakariko Village. The Book of Mudora can be found on the top of a bookshelf, and can be knocked down by dashing into it with the Pegasus Boots.
Link's Awakening
In Link's Awakening, the Village Library contains several books that explain basic controls, the Atlas of Koholint Island that lets Link see the full map of Koholint Island, and Dark Secrets And Mysteries Of Koholint, which gives directions to navigate inside the Wind Fish's Egg.
In Link's Awakening DX, an additional book can be found atop of a bookshelf. In order to access it, Link must knock it down by dashing into the bookshelf using the Pegasus Boots. Link can then read it to learn the instructions needed to access the Color Dungeon.
Oracle of Ages
In Oracle of Ages, the Eyeglass Island Library is located in the Zora Seas. It can only be opened by using the Library Key. Inside, Link can find the Book of Seals in the present and Fairy Powder in the past. The Mirror Shield can also be obtained from here through a Linked Game.
The Minish Cap
In The Minish Cap, the Royal Hyrule Library is home to the Minish elder Librari. In order to reach it, Link must find the three missing Library Books. When found, the Library will store the books back on their bookshelves so Link can climb them and reach Librari, who will lead him to the location of the Flippers. When Vaati takes over Hyrule Castle, a Vassal blocks the entrance to the Royal Hyrule Library.
Breath of the Wild
In Breath of the Wild there is a library in the Hyrule Castle that has fallen into disrepair. It holds several monsters and cookbooks, and a secret chamber used by the king with his personal journal.
Other Appearances
A Link to the Past (Ishinomori)
In the A Link to the Past comic by Shotaro Ishinomori, the Library in Kakariko Village is known as the House of Books. When Link returns to Kakariko to find clues about the remaining two Pendants of Virtue,[3] he finds the library has been set on fire by Agahnim's soldiers.[4] Link learns that the Librarian, who he must speak to according to Sahasrahla,[5] is trapped inside the flames.[6] Link then pours a bucket of water on him and barges in to successfully save the librarian, who eventually gives him the Book of Mudora, which they managed to save from the flames.
