 Independent Witch Hat Atelier Wiki


Librarians are a group of witches who have been tasked with managing the Tower of Tomes.[1]

Overview[edit | edit source]

Outside of the general responsibility of managing the tower, the specifics of their responsibilities are unknown. In addition to this, little is known about the librarians themselves aside from it being rare for any of them to leave the tower.[2]

The head of the Arklaum family always serves as a librarian.[3]

Four Librarians[edit | edit source]

The four librarians are the most prominent four. It is their responsibility to protect the tower,[4] and to administer trials to all those who seek entrace.[1]

Head Librarian[edit | edit source]

One of the four librarians is given the role of head librarian, with the position currently belonging to Adina Arklaum.[2] It is the head's responsibility to observe spells that will be added to the tower and to keep an eye out for candidates for future librarians.[5] It is also tradition for the head librarian to make an appearance at the Silver Eve Procession.[2]

Notes[edit | edit source]

  • Adina's cap doesn't match any of the ones shown in Chapter 2 when Qifrey is explaining the four librarians to Coco so it can be presumed that some or all of these designs were retconned.
  • The wording of "witches tasked to serve as Librarians" in the Volume 7 extra somewhat implies that you have to be recruited into being a Librarian and that it isn't a position any witch can apply for although this has never been outright confirmed or denied.
