The Entrance Hall
This is the location of the main gates and the only way for anyone to enter or exit The Great Library. Because of this, and after an assault from Morgoth, the Entrance Hall has turned into the most heavily protected location in the library. Even if someone forces their way to the gates, it can only be opened with the Master Key. This also serves as the hub from which one can travel into the Stacks and function as the main HQ of the Guardians.
The Stacks
A myriad of bookshelves filled with books of all imaginable shapes and sizes make up the in-between of the Great Libraries' different sections. One has to traverse it to reach other areas, and danger lurks in many forms. Apart from its abnormal size and labyrinthlike properties, the Great Library Stacks resembles a “regular” library. From here, one can journey to the different sections to visit these fictional locations, the so-called Manifestations.
- The Children’s Section: The Children’s Section is unique because it is in the middle of the Library, with the corridors of the Stack tying it directly to all the other sections of the Library. In this colourful place, one can find representations of all other genres of literature, just focused on children of all ages. Moominvalley, Narnia, Alledia, Hundred Acre Wood, and River Heights are examples of Manifestations found here.
- The Mythic Forest: This is the home of Fairytales, Folklore, and Myth. Despite being called a forest, it has several other locations and is divided into many realms, kingdoms, or other entities. Some known Manifestations of the Enchanted Forest are Baba Yaga’s Cottage, Uruk, Avalon, and Camelot.
- Nightholm: The Library’s section for horror and one of the most dangerous places to be caught unprepared. As the name implies, it is almost always night here, and the area twists between amalgamations of weird cities and vast wastelands. Graveyards are as common a sight as mental hospitals, haunted mansions, and ancient forests. Examples of some Manfiestations one can find here are Derry, Arkham, Castle Dracula, HMS Terror, Four Paths, and Overlook Hotel.
- Mystery Meadows: This is the home of supernatural and mundane mysteries involving criminals and investigations. Due to the overwhelming influence of the most famous detectives, Mystery Meadows resembles the English countryside. The only major settlement amalgamates countless European and American cities, with landmarks that should not be in the same place. Some Manifestations found here are St Mary Mead, Baker Street, Florin Court, The Louvre, British Museum, Eastwick, and Hill House.
- Mourner’s Crossing: This is the realm of tragedy, sadness, and liars. Every night brings another glittering affair in Mourner’s Crossing. Everyone sweats to get by, but admitting to reality means social ruin. The poorest citizens struggle to maintain a middle-class appearance, scrounging through garbage heaps at night to find wares to sell in their shops in the morning. Everything appears more valuable, solid, and wholesome than the actuality, and everyone behaves as if the illusion of grandeur and prosperity were real. Treason, sorrow, and heartaches occur every day here. In this realm are such manifestations as Kronborg’s Castle, West Egg, Verona, and Soledad.
- The Cosmic Night: The Cosmic Night is the home of science fiction and other cosmic and dimension-related things, whether horror or otherwise. It is one of the most alien, with much of it dominated by a space-like void, with the addition of being breathable. It has weird planets, alien worlds, and strange dimensions. Some manifestations here are Milliways, Diaspar, Solaria, Carcosa, and Arrakis.
- Fantasia: Fantasia is the realm of Fantasy and grand adventures. It is the most epic section of the Library, where vast fields and forests are dotted with city-states, castles, magical towers, and underground dungeons. Manifestations such as Ankh-Morpork, Andor, Blingtown, Hogwarts, Middle-Earth, and Earthsea can be found here.
- Our Town: Out of all the locations in the Library, Our Town is by far the most mundane. Sure, it has very big towns, but other than that, they look very generic, surrounded by forests and mountains. With estates dotting the countryside. This is the home for regular novels of a realistic kind, with the addition of some more historical in nature. Romance and drama are common here, and manifestations such as Pemberley, The Cupcake Cafe, Bath, and Wuthering Heights can appear here.
