Books and libraries in fiction can be mystical things; keepers of information, certainly, of secrets and sometimes of magic, as well. It's natural, therefore, that some authors like to spread some of that magic onto the librarian, too—when they aren't making them hot or scary, that is. A magic librarian will very often have the ability to send readers (or people who either don't read or disparage books, to teach 'em a lesson) into the world within the books, and sometimes, pity those who don't return their books to the library before the due date. Often overlaps with Hot Librarian, Scary Librarian, or possibly even both. If the librarians work at a Spooky Silent Library, they may also be Evil Librarians. Examples |

In Thursday Next, the Cheshire Cat manages the Great Library, a magical place that contains all books that have been or will be written, and claims to know everything there is to know about them, including how many times they've been read, how many of them are being read at any given time, and by whom. | |

Lisa from Genshin Impact is a Hot Witch in charge of the Mondstadt library. The first act of her character quest involves her trying to recover overdue library books from a few of the shopkeepers in town, an aspect of her job she finds "troublesome", especially when one of the books winds up in the hands of an Abyss Mage she eventually has to kill to get it back. | |

At the beginning of Whither, Finn, The Short Guy with Glasses. As in, he'd fit this tropes if he were short. But the plot takes him out of the library and into places he never thought he'd visit. He's actually a construct — a paper golem created by the guardian witch, but he Grew Beyond Their Programming and won't do her bidding. | |

Mage scholar, ferret changeling, and head librarian of the Infinite Library at the age of 15, partly thanks to his mastery of spells that let him scan through several books at once. Vivio Takamachi is also a librarian at the Infinite Library, though her true passion lies in what is basically Magical Girl MMA. |

Space Marine Librarians are responsible for their chapter's archives, the interstellar psychic communications the Chapter needs, and are also powerful psykers. The Blood Ravens have a large amount of Librarians, more than the average Chapter, which has lead fans to speculate that the Blood Ravens have a connection to the Thousand Sons, the Chaos Marines of Magnus the Red and may be loyalist Thousand Sons themselves who avoided the Rubric of Ahriman (a spell that turned their non-Psyker brothers to dust sealed within their armor). | |

She's also a Scary Librarian; Hogwarts library books have protective spells on them as a matter of course, but she's been known to add personal touches.

The Librarian of the Unseen University in the Discworld series. He's a wizard, and the library is attached to a wizards' university, but he also commands magics that come from the mere fact of it being a library (most notably the secret of L-Space, which connects every library that ever existed). He was also transformed into an orangutan, and decided to stay that way - some books would drive any man insane to read... but an orangutan will merely suffer a headache. | |

Mr. Coreander in The Neverending Story still qualifies in the original version, although the story is a little different; at the end of the story, Bastion goes back to the store to apologize for stealing the book, but Coreander doesn't remember him or the book; however, he does know about the Childlike Empress, and tells Bastian how to meet her again if he wants. He simply has to give her another name, and he can visit her and Fantasia any time he likes. | |

Lucien in The Sandman (1989), who maintains the Library of Dream, which contains every book anybody ever thought or dreamed about writing, from the masterpieces of great authors who died before committing them to paper, down to the novel you always tell yourself you'll write one day. (The Bestselling Romantic Spy Thriller I Used To Think About On The Bus That Would Sell A Billion Copies And Mean I'd Never Have to Work Again. Not exactly the catchiest of titles, is it?) He knows everything about every book in the library, including where each of them is at any given moment, although at one point he admits that this comes at the cost of not being able to remember most things that happen outside the library, including who he was before he became the librarian. | |

Obligatory Buffy the Vampire Slayer example: Giles is a Downplayed example. The nature of Ritual Magic in the setting means that anyone who's read the right books can cast a few simple spells, and while Giles isn't especially accomplished at doing so, it's revealed that he dabbled in magic in his Dark and Troubled Past as "Ripper" and probably could have been quite powerful if he'd taken that path in life instead of becoming a Watcher who moonlights as a high school librarian. However, as a research resource for a talented witch like Willow he's invaluable. | |

Patchouli Knowledge of Touhou is the Scarlet Devil Mansion's resident witch, and the de facto librarian of the place. She's constantly seen with a book in her hand when fighting, to top things off. Oh, and her debut stage theme is called "Voile, the Magic Library." Her aide and familiar may also qualify. | |

Mario Party DS: One of the boards is a library owned by Kamek, Bowser's right-hand Evil Sorcerer. He also serves as the boss of this board in Story Mode, and to defeat him you must stain his face with your pen's ink, causing him to make a temper tantrum that makes several books fall until one of them falls into his head. Repeating this tactic three times will defeat him. | |

The librarian of the magic school in Charmed is magical, just like the rest of the cast. The first librarian we see is a disgruntled troll that keeps burning books. | |

Carl Conrad Coreander, of The Neverending Story, who kept the eponymous tome in his shop until Bastian stole it. Originally a fairly ordinary old book seller, the film series added implied magical properties (he can appear and disappear at will, apparently), and in the much-maligned third film he works as a librarian at Bastian's high school. | |
