The library is one of the special locations in Baldi's Basics Plus.

Description

The center of the library.

The library is a large room with many bookshelves and a circular table with a globe and a computer on it.

Structures like lockers and buttons are able to spawn here.

The library's old appearance.

Prior to V0.4, the library was completely different. It resembled a labyrinth maze with book holders of assorted books as thin walls, with a large area in the center. Additionally, the room appeared to be empty.

Overview

Main gameplay

While in this room, all sounds, music, and voices will be muted. Also, all captions are removed. Opening any swinging door connected to the library will not make a sound and therefore does not directly attract Baldi, unless the player is in his line of sight.

When Baldi is in this room, his slapping sound will also not be heard, similar to the broken ruler event. No jump-scare sound is heard when Baldi catches the player.

The library cannot appear in floor 1.

Other appearances

• In Baldi's Basics Kickstarter Exclusive Demo, the library is first introduced, but there is no lighting effect in this demo.

Trivia

General

• The library was first mentioned in the Kickstarter campaign description.

Baldi's Basics Plus

• Hiding in a blue locker in the library does not alert Baldi, even without using WD-NoSquee.
• If an Alarm Clock rings in the library, it will not lure Baldi to it.
• Even if Baldi is in the library, he can hear any sound from outside of the library.

A dark area.

A Faculty Nametag at the dead end.

• Prior to V0.4, the library had a few differences (aside from its appearance):
  • There was typically at least one dark area.
  • There were a few items, such as WD-NoSquee, Safety Scissors, and the Faculty Nametag at the dead end.
  • It was one of two special rooms where tiles were revealed separately on the map (not counting the big area) with the other being Gotta Sweep's closet.
  • The texture of the bookshelf was rescaled in this game.
  • A few rooms could also connect to this location, like faculty rooms, classrooms, and Gotta Sweep's closet.
    • If the player entered a room connected to the library, they could still hear sounds.

Baldi's Basics Kickstarter Exclusive Demo

• Before V1.2, the library's map color was usually black. It was changed to white for it to be visible on the advanced map's black background.
  • In Baldi's Basics Plus, the debug room uses the black color on the map.

Glitches

• Sometimes, a door located next to a library will not attract Baldi when opening it. Even though it is mentioned that this glitch was fixed the V0.3 development log, it is not fixed yet.
  • Similarly, the Alarm Clock placed in any room will not attract Baldi after it rings, if it is placed next to the door connected to the library.
• In V0.4, the library was the only special location in Floor 3.
