    The Palace of Green Porcelain has sections in it that are just like a museum.  One section is made up of historical items, while another is a section of paleontology (dinosaur bones, etc). The Time Traveller is excited when he finds machinery in it.  With all of these items, the Time Traveller is able to see a little into the past (as in 800,000 a.d.), which makes it similar to a library.  It is a resource of information for him.  Although he has little time to explore, he is able to find some matches, some camphor and even a lever that he can use as a club against the Morlocks if they attack.
