The Bonesborough Public Library appears in the Disney Channel animated series, The Owl House. It is home to the largest collection of magical books on The Boiling Isles.
Background[]
Aside from the magical influence, the Library's system is pretty much the same as a human Library. There are books that hover over people's heads or shelve themselves, and crystal balls in the place of computers. The library also happens to contain books from the human realm, such as Manga and graphic novels
Amity Blight is a part-time librarian, who often reads to kids in the kid's corner. She also has a secret hideaway hidden behind the Romance section, filled with a private selection of books she likes to read, including The Good Witch Azura. Access to this room is by pulling out the book titled The Lone Witch & Secret Room. The secret room was given to her by the master librarian, Malphas, who also gave her a job.
Whenever the Wailing Star shower passes over, the contents of the books are magically brought to life. For example, if one looks through the pages of a storybook, the characters will come to life. It is also revealed that writing doodles in books can also be brought to life, as shown when Emira and Edric added human legs to a cute duck character and when Luz wrote about herself dressed as Azura. During this event, the library is closed early to prevent anyone from unleashing such magic.
The Forbidden Stacks is a restricted section of the library containing old books, including Philip Wittebane's diary. It is a place filled with echo mice, and the only person allowed to access it is Master Librarian Malphas. Those who enter risk getting fed to the bookworms or fired from the library staff.
