Inside you'll encounter two warriors and an archer on the bookshelf. [1] On a balcony adjacent in this room you'll find a bonfire. [2]
Go up the stairs leading from this location (to the left), you'll reach a previous section on the library.

After exploring above path, return to the room, where you've descended the ladder. Go to the side chamber full of books, to open a chest (Blue Titanite Chunk).

In an adjacent chamber, also full of books but a bit larger, you'll find two more chest (you should find there: Archive Tower Giant Cell Key - a key to the location where octopuses were kept, Crystal Ember and Channelers armor) - WARNING, one of them is Mimic (hit it before opening).

In the same room use the lever, to open a descend down. [1] There is one more chest - open it (Prism Stones). [2]
Now go through fog.

Outside you'll get to a small forest with many crystal golems. [1] Go down the ladder and start the fight with them - it is enough to circle around slow enemies and attack them from behind. [2]
There is also a golden golem lurking in the area - he is tougher and has a greater range. So it means that you won't be fully safe behind his back.

A few opponents are lurking next to walls - so watch out. In the center part of the location you can collect Crystalline armor, [1] and next to the wall on the right you'll find Blue Titanite Chunk. [2]
After collecting items, head towards Crystal Cave.
