This sense of order reminds me of the line from Alexander Pope in his An Essay on Man, "Order is heaven's first law." We can live such efficient and productive lives if the things around us are in order, including our minds (and libraries!) Wonderful episode! If one were to read only one book as your friend did, The Count of Monte Cristo is a brilliant choice, it's one of my all time favorites.
You can only know what you think “about”. This relates to Gilgamesh’s lament on the invention of writing. Anyone can think they know something because they’ve read something.

I love the analogy between a library and our minds. This makes me want to reorganize all my books! Thanks so much for sharing!
