I remember a cartoon when i was young called "The Pagemaster-1994" with Macaulay Culkin, im sure (if my memory is up to scratch) that movie was about the information you mentioned!

\"Consulting with the Akashic records can be done alone if you have the skill, but is normally done with the assistance of an advanced being from a higher level of existence. This is done as a sort of telepathic guided tour. The enormous amount of information and chaff is filtered out for you and the selected record, of past events or future probability, is presented to you clairvoyantly, via a telepathic link with the... librarian.

its interesting that we can access thoughts and memories this way, even events we didnt directly take part in (its like a collective subconsious of imformation embeded in our heads). Walking into a library has a really symbolic nature, the size and quality of information, i guess our brains are our own personal library's, at least we dont get charged for overdue books.
