The ''' | The '''Village Library''' is a location in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]''. Found on the west side of [[Mabe Village]], it holds a number of books available to read. Most of the books explain basic game controls or offer advice. However, there are two books of importance to Link's quest. The first, which is found only in the [[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX|DX Game Boy Color port]] and [[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Nintendo Switch remake]], reveals the location of the [[Color Dungeon]]. The other one can only be read after obtaining the [[Magnifying Lens]]. This book reveals the secret of how to traverse the pathway to the final boss of the game. | ||

{{Quote|{{Dump|LA|503}}|Dark Secrets and Mysteries of Koholint (1993 edition)}} | |||
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.{{Ref|LA|494-495|N/A}} However, once he obtains the [[Magnifying Lens]] from the [[Link's Awakening Trading Sequence|Trading Sequence]], he finds a series of arrows pointing in directions. There are three possibilities: | |||
Option One: | |||

{{Quote|{{Dump|LADX|26}}|Color Dungeon Book (1998 edition)}} | |||
Introduced in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX|Link's Awakening DX]]'', this book did not have a title{{Ref|LADX|25|N/A}} until the [[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Nintendo Switch remake]]. | |||
It is found 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]]. | |||
