I'm wondering if the Library is so named because so many clues (and probably red herrings) are given by the monitor. People often play through the library listening to Guilty Spark to research trying to piece together hypotheses. Maybe the Library was created as a place to put lots of important clues that might foreshadow revelations made in Halo 2. I wouldn't put it beyond Bungie to do this.

I meant besides the obvious. It doesn't seem to me that you should have to have a level in which you fight nearly endless waves of flood while listening to Guilty Spark say mysterious, suggestive things instead of just teleporting to where the index is for no other reason than that zombie slaying seemed to work for Resident Evil. There's gotta be a reason for us to slog through all that and a reason for Bungie to make the level with all it's recorded speech, right?

nah, your transported at the bottom for a reason. That reason it to create a level :P or else because there aint many. Library also enables ou to here the stories surrounding the flood like you said. At the end you get the index safely guarded by 343 and its in mid air so you need to use the lift...obviously.. You know, if the flood werent released by the stupid covenant then you wouldnt have to face a single flood in the place! wouldnt that have been fun!
