Yes, extremely interesting. I have a copy of the Library, and what put me onto it, strangely enough was a book I read mmmblmmmbl years ago called 'Valis', by Phillip K. Dick. I then read a book called 'The Gnostic Gospels' by Elaine Pagels because I wasn't really sure if Dick's mentioning of the Library wasn't just a fiction device for his book. It seemed like it must be something real. The Pagels book was fascinating. I got a copy of the Library eventually from the publisher in New York.
