The Properties Of Warp Holes

Main article: The Properties Of Warp Holes

"'There are some Warp Holes on Koholint Island. You can warp to and fro using these holes. If you jump into the Warp Hole at which you arrived, you will go to the next one in the sequence. You can only warp to a hole you have seen with your own eyes...'"

— The Properties Of Warp Holes

This book describes Warp Holes. There are four Warp Holes on Koholint Island: one in Ukuku Prairie, Tal Tal Heights, East of the Bay, and Tal Tal Mountain Range.

Atlas Of Koholint Island

Main article: Atlas Of Koholint Island

When this book is opened, it contains a complete map of Koholint Island. Link can use it to find the names and locations of areas he has not yet visited.[1]

Dark Secrets And Mysteries Of Koholint

Main article: Dark Secrets And Mysteries Of Koholint

"Round and round, the passageways of the Egg... < < ^ > > ^ < ^ ?? ...Hmmmmmm, this book reeks of secrets..."

— Dark Secrets And Mysteries Of Koholint

This book is found in the bottom left-hand corner and is the only one that is necessary to the storyline. When Link first attempts to read it, the book is written in print that is too tiny to read.[2] However, once he obtains the Magnifying Lens from the Trading Sequence, he finds a series of arrows pointing in directions. There are three possibilites:

Option One: ←←↑→→↑←↑

Option Two: →↑↑→↑↑→↑

Option Three: ←↑→↑←↑→↑

These arrows are the directions to successfully navigate the Wind Fish's Egg to meet with The Shadow Nightmares.

Color Dungeon Book

"New world of color under the 5 gravestones. 3^ 4> 5^ 2< 1v Try with all your might. Open a new path! Whoever is worthy receives the power of color. I wonder what the world of color is?"

— Color Dungeon Book

Unlike the other books in the library, this one does not have a title.[3] It is also found only in the DX version of the game, on top of the shelves at the back of the room. In order to get it down, Link must run into the shelves with the Pegasus Boots, which knocks down the book and allows him to read it. Similar to the Dark Secrets and Mysteries of Koholint book, it contains a series of arrows. However, these ones are always the same, and they describe the order and direction that Link should push the graves in the Cemetery to open the entrance to the Color Dungeon.
