I was using the term “public library” as a well-understood concept of where unaffiliated members of the public can come in at will to check out books, not in the specific context of property type. I was not specifically referring to the public vs private dichotomy. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_library
This is opposed to the other concept I was talking about, a library that is owned by a specific entity (regardless of whether said owner is the government, a private individual, an organization, or anything else) that is only for the use of the owner, AKA a private library.
If the public can freely access and use it, it’s public. If the public cannot freely access and use it, it’s private. It’s not that complicated.
And you realize you stated by talking of it not being started as a “public library”, in that context it is saying private property, you can;t just go and change it after you already stated it.
So sorry dude but you are wrong, it is not that meaning to “private” when you already used the context of property type.
You know that private has multiple meanings, yes? I was not using the meaning that sits on the divide of public property vs private property.

Why wouldn’t be the town library, regardless of whether it was privately or publically owned? It a tree, a tree of all things, in the middle of town filled to the brim with books! What else could it be?
For that matter, there’s no mention of who lived there or took care of the books before Twilight showed up in Ponyville. They said that they arranged for her to stay at a library during the Summer Sun Celebration. Arranged with who? If it’s a public library (or one privately own by Celestia or something) there still should been a care taker. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’d like to find out a bit more of the library’s history, especially since in Too Many Pinkies it was shown to have hidden storerooms and such.
By legal designation it is only private property if owned by non-governmental legal entities.
Meaning if it’s government owned it’s not private property.
Private, Adjective
“belonging to or for the use of one particular person or group of people only.”
You used an oxymoron. Any building owned by the government inherently cannot be a private building.
Just because it was there doesn’t mean that it was in use by the public. It could have been a private library owned and used by the government, for example, and Celestia gave it to her for her residence after the Summer Sun Celebration.
All of said events were led by either Twilight or one of her friends. If the inside had been the location of a meeting led by say, Mayor Mare, then that’d be one thing, but not if Twilight or Rainbow were leading the meetings.
Given that it was there prior to Twilight’s residence, it was properly the town library. If not then Ponyville just has this tree that holds a lot of books in town for no reason. Twilight only moved in permanently at the end of the two parter. She was not planning on staying when she first arrived in Ponyville and was only going to stay for the duration of the Summer Sun Celebration. She even mentioned that that she could use the books there to research the Elements, thus the books, at least at first, are not her own. Also, whenever anyone in town needs a book, they go to Twilight. They also hold several public events, such as a book club and the meeting of all the Pegasi in Ponyville at the library.
The Cmc did once.
And only once.
My house is still a house.
Not once have we ever seen it referred to as a public library, nor have we ever seen ponies other than the Mane 6 and Spike walk in without being invited in (barring maybe episode 1, but Pinkie could have invited everyone in for the surprise party), nor have we see anyone ever check anything out.
It’s not actually referred to as “her library”, but referred to as “a library”. :3
It’s never actually been stated to be a public library.

twilight could have annihilated tirek on her own, if they didn’t give him discord
