A Library is a knowledge building where paper is used to accumulate knowledge points, which are then used to research upgrades to improve your settlement. Because of this, a library is a cornerstone element in bettering a settlement, as there are countless upgrades and unlockables that would be inaccessible otherwise. There are 3 components for this building: the required scribe station and the optional shelf and carpet. The last two components add efficiency to the building, speeding up the production and accumulation of knowledge points.

Libraries, as of now, are the one and only building in the knowledge category. The larger the library, the higher the capacity of knowledge points a settlement can have. The speed of the accumulation of points is also tied directly to the size of the library, as with any building, more scribes can be hired there.
