Clean The Library is a cooperative Roblox sorting game by Retro Library (project lead: StarMarine). Your local library is upside down — thousands of books are scattered across two floors. Pick them up, read spine labels, and shelve each volume in the correct section (1A through 2F) in series order.
Complete shelf rows to earn stat points, unlock magic abilities, and push toward the Clean The Library! badge. You can clean alone or with friends and compete for the fastest leaderboard time. The Roblox description notes inspiration from Librarian: Tidy Up the Arcane Library, with keys, upgrades, and a two-floor layout built for Roblox.

Match cover color and category tag to a shelf code (e.g. 1H for Horror). Place volumes 1, 2, 3 in order.
A full correct row lights up blue at the top. Full but dark means wrong volume or mixed series.
Finish rows to earn points — see the best upgrades guide for magic unlock order.
Clean The Library supports solo cleanup and public co-op servers. Both paths earn stat points and count toward badges.

| Tier | Ability | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|

| S | Assemble | Magic | Pulls scattered books into one cluster — essential after co-op dumps. |
| A | Insight | Magic | Highlights misfiled books on completed rows before errors compound. |
| A | Shelf Guide | Magic | Helps locate the correct section without burning hint charges. |
| B | Auto-Shelving | Magic | Places finished row batches — best unlocked late game on organized piles. |
Which books to grab first and which abilities to upgrade early.
| Tier | Target | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| S | Bright-cover sets | Books | Green, white, and yellow spines — easiest to match to shelf sections early. |
| A | Named series | Books | Multi-volume sets (e.g. Spider-Man Collection) — finish in volume order 1→2→3. |
| C | Dark / black spines | Books | Harder to distinguish — save for when you know the section map. |

Clean The Library is a library sorting game. Pick up scattered books, match them to shelf section codes (1A–2F), place series in volume order, and complete rows to earn stat points for magic upgrades.
A row that looks full but stays dark usually has a missing volume, wrong order, or a book from another category mixed in. Use Insight or re-check spine labels against the map guide.
