[[File:Uncle$crooge383.jpg|thumb|Cover to ''Uncle $crooge'' #383, November 2008, "Guardians of the Lost Library" – original cover art by Don Rosa]]
"Guardians of the Lost Library" was first published in ''[[Uncle Scrooge Adventures]]'' #27, July, 1994. Compared to European prints, this original English-language edition was of a poor quality where on a number of pages the [[CMYK]] printing plates had been misaligned resulting in more than obvious color fringing.

The story was eventually re-published at a higher printing quality in [[Gemstone Publishing|Gemstone]]'s ''60 Years of Uncle $crooge'' celebratory edition ''Uncle Scrooge'' #383, November, 2008 (which turned out to be Gemstone's ultimate Disney comic publication, as [[Boom! Studios#Boom.21_Kids|Boom! Kids]] was about to take over publishing Disney's classic characters starting September, 2009). Again, original art by Rosa was used for the cover, however the artwork used for the 2008 reprint had been initially made by Rosa not specifically as cover art but as part of a series of collectibles related to his stories that had been originally published by French Disney magazine ''[[Picsou Magazine]]'' in 2004.<ref>[http://coa.inducks.org/story.php?c=FC+PM++385D INDUCKS information] on the Don Rosa collectible artwork first published in ''[[Picsou Magazine]]'' #385, February 2004, and later used for the cover of ''Uncle $crooge'' #383</ref> While the 2008 reprint featured a superior printing quality and the 2008 cover was shaded as usual with North American Disney comics, with the reprinted story itself Gemstone replaced [[Gladstone Publishing]]'s 1994 finer-graded colorization featuring many soft gradients with Egmont's European solid-hue color scheme.
