- City: Obsidian Bay
- Country: Domain of Obsidian Bay

Humble by the standards of many of the Great Libraries of the Flanaess, the Library of Obsidian Bay is nonetheless a respected institution within its own borders.
Located in a modest two-story building in Obsidian Bay’s High Quarter and run by clerics of Delleb (Lesser Oeridian God:LG: Reason, Intellect, Study) the library holds several hundred books detailing history of the city, the region, and its citizens in its Common Stacks.
Also found within the Common Stacks are copies of the city’s charter and its various laws and regulations, maps of the city and the surrounding domain, genealogies of prominent families who took part in the city’s founding. A handful of shipping and ocean charts can be found here as well, detailing currents, reefs, and shipwrecks in a 50 mile radius of Obsidian bay.
Access to any of the Library’s materials is restricted its patrons, each of whom must pay a 30 gold piece annual membership (the fee is due on Coldeven 15, and is not prorated). Patrons gain unrestricted access to the Common Stacks, which hold the information outlined above. Members of the city’s three councils a given free access to the Common Stacks upon their formal swearing in; this access ends with their terms.
Patrons also have supervised access to the Restricted Stacks, which hold a handful of tomes dating back to the days when Keoland held the Pomarj, and the land was known as the "Poor March". These last tomes – which include dwarven histories, notes from old Suel dukes, and other moldy records -- are carefully guarded by the clergy and are located in the Library’s basement. The clergy must escort anyone viewing them at all times.
Also located in the basement are the Official Stacks, which consist of various city records which are accessible only to members of the Mayor’s staff or one of the Lord Speakers of the Councils.
