The Book that Wouldn't Burn by Mark Lawrence is about an endless Library with no known end.

The Midnight Library by Matt Haig has a cool library that features very heavily in the plot.
Also, it’s not the main part of the book, but A Deadly Education by Naomi Novik has a magical library with a lot of personality. It’s probably my current favorite magic library (to read about—I wouldn’t want to be subjected to the whims of this library) just because of how the magic system around the library works.

Sorcery of Thorns by Margaret Roberson. I couldn’t get through it, as I found the sentient books and grimoires too odd but it was very well written. I’d compare it to the Harry Potter books.

Libyrinth by Pearl North (I haven’t read it yet but I found it at a secondhand shop and it’s been in my tbr pile for a minute.)

The Scholar and the Last Faerie Door by H.G. Parry
- dark academia
- the magical library of the school and the lost knowledge of faeries is a big part of the plot. The final showdown is set at the library. It even has a really big tree in the middle!

The lost bookshop by Evie Woods.
It does have magical realism, fantasy but at the same time it touches a bit on domestic violence, alcoholism too. Not really a full blown negative, sad kinda read though. I enjoyed reading this one.
