New York Public Library

In the early 21st century, after they were uncovered and believed to be nothing more than hitherto-unknown literature from the 18th century, a cache of books including the Book of Books and a series of paperbacks which dealt with the war were presented to the New York Public Library, where they were slated to be unveiled to the public after an initial period of study. Before this could happen, a number of war powers, and powers from other universes, interfered. A number of minor curators were killed in the process, with their deaths later being blamed on a parasitic fungus in the books, which were thus taken away from the Library in a secure container before the public ever laid eyes on them.
