Well, that does bring up the questoin of what you consider to be a library. If you don't trust this definition, what is a library?

Hmm. Isn't changing information to suit your own purposes exactly what the Librarians do? Isn't that why we oppose them?

What? No! As you can see from my name, I am most certainly not a librarian!

The only difference that I can see is that archive materials are usually primary sources.  This is not the case in the royal archive soooooo it is a library.

i figured it out, the royal archives (not a library) is a library, the not a library is just part of its name.
