On the corner of a modern town, on higher ground atop a hill is a Western building, old as though it were left behind by time. Closed for many years, it is a private library called "Clover Library". Loving books from a young age, Aikawa Chihiro wishes to one day have a job involving books. She then earns the job of a live-in custodian of the Clover Library. With a look like that of on old photograph, strange and impossible things occur there, one after another. The sense of being gazed upon, even though nobody should be inside. Books that moved before one knew it. Large, large shadows peering through the window. Finally, at night, people that come out of nowhere who call themselves "frequenters since the olden days". Surrounded by these individuals- all of whom possess distinct personalities- Chihiro prepares the library for its opening day. Eventually, she's no longer able to suppress her suspicions and confusion over the continuous occurrences of strange happenings, as well as the truth behind who or what these frequenters really are. Struck by her questions, this is their reply: "I'm sorry. We kept our mouths shut about it. We are not human." "In truth, we are actually books."
On the corner of a modern town, there is a private library called the "Clover Library". During the day, it seems like an ordinary library. However, when night comes, it becomes a strange library where the books take on human forms. The cookbook, Natsume. The picture book, Riku. The book of paintings, Shikimi. The technical book, Itsuki. The book that's the latest craze, Aoi. Aikawa Chihiro, the protagonist, became the library's live-in caretaker. While somewhat inept, she continued to manage the library. One day... The library's pet cat, Kuu, brought a single key to Chihiro. "I wonder where this key is for? When it's night, I'll try asking everyone." Now, on the very top floor of Clover Library, the so-called "forbidden door" will be opened.
