The Library
The gem of Malfoy Manor.. Admission to the library is granted only to the most honoured guests and family confidantes, whereas ‘regular’ visitors are received into the drawing room and no further. The dimensions of the room in itself are impressive (53-foot-wide, 72-foot long, 27-foot-high ceiling), to say nothing of the rare and ancient collections within.
The Malfoy family's vast collection of priceless scrolls, artifacts, and leather-bound editions lines two levels of shelves containing some 20,000 volumes under a frescoed ceiling. Across from a spectacular black marble fireplace stands a massive, hand-carved book rack, the richly textured wood bearing beautiful chiseled evidence of the woodcarving skill that went into its creation.
Two large overstuffed leather chairs sit comfortably next to each other before the fireplace separated by a small round table. The floors are covered in fine rugs, and furniture is placed about the center of the room, where many small books or larger tomes lie in wait upon heavily carved oak tables. The aroma of parchment and leather bindings is sweet. Overhead can be seen a second level of the library, accessible by a spiral staircase.
The second floor of the library is an extended balcony over the lower level. One can see a thin opening above the mantle in the second view of the room. Plush leather chairs and small tables are placed here and there in alcoves along the railing, offering a view of below and a comfortable place to curl up with a good book or scroll. In one quiet corner a chess table has been set up. Heavy velvet drapes hang over the windows, blocking out all light.

An owl flies through the open window of Lucius Malfoy's library, and leaves the following note:

Lucius Malfoy
After stepping into his library, he threw his cloak onto the back of one of the massive chairs. He sighed and sat behind his desk, rubbing his temples. It took a few moments before he realized that there was a sealed parchment in front of him. He opened it and read its contents.
His expression changed from one of surprise to one of anger. So, Vincent Crabbe thinks that he is the Dark Lord's favorite on the basis that the Dark Lord is staying with him? He is a bigger fool than I thought. He smiled and penned a reply.
He handed the parchment to his owl to deliver to the Crabbe estate. As he watched it fly away, he felt a feeling in his stomach that he was not used to feeling..fear.

Lucius Malfoy
After awhile, Lucius picked up a quill and penned a letter to his son.
He gave it to Draco's owl, and bid it take the letter to Hogwarts.
