Alt titles: Teikoku dai 11 zensen kichi grimoire toshokan, tadaima kaikan-chū, 帝国第１１前線基地魔導図書館、ただいま開館中
Author: Yousuke Saeki (Lupin the Third: Princess of Another World, The Hero is a Skeleton!)
Artist: Kinshi
Volumes: 3 (most recent released this month)
Publisher: Shogakukan (Gagaga Bunko)Synopsis: For years, humans and demons have waged war. The humans have lost the ability to use magic and instead rely on iron, fire, and some magical tools. The Princess of the land, seeking to use magical relics or grimoires, establishes a library to study these books. The imperial military sees these as weapons, but one woman thinks differently.
Enter the loud, foul mouthed, tough, book loving woman who loses her job in the imperial military library due to loving books too much and now runs the grimoire library. One of the first things she does to save her beloved books is to negotiate with the demons to outlaw their use on the battlefield??
Thoughts: Once again, this is another suggestion I have based on a Shogakukan fan’s recommendation. I know it’s Gagaga and I don’t care - at the very least, YP’s spies can get some ideas here.

The cover art is sufficient to sell me on this one.
Add in being a retired librarian and I'm really interested! -
Always willing to read a light novel starring a librarian 😊

Gotta start binge-reading this one asap once it's out.
