Well, this librarian would show them how to create excellent search strings, as well as point them to source material: Pratt, Theodore, Garrett Price, and Carl H. Pforzheimer. 1942. Mr. Limpet. New York: Knopf.
The Deep Ones are a common thing in the Lovecraftian New England shore. I guess selling vacuum cleaners is just as good as their elder god carrying around a pillar to smite you with.
“There’s no record of the Fish-Man that would come to shore and sell vacuum cleaners?!?”
No, but keep reading and you will hear the tale of a Great Pumpkin that rises out of the pumpkin patch and flys through the air to bring toys to all the children of the world.
Wallace and Rose need to find out about L-Space, documented by the great Terry Pratchett. “Large quantities of magical and mundane books create portals into L-space that can be accessed using innate powers of librarianship that are taught by the Librarians of Time and Space to those deemed worthy across the multiverse…Because L-space links every library, it is possible to reach any one of these throughout space, time and the multiverse.” (from Wiki.LSpace.org). Perhaps that’s where the fish salesman info is being hidden!

Their mistake is, they’re researching in books. They should be Googling on the internet, they’ll find anything!

Is the librarian a child?

Well, to be fair…a librarian WOULD be in a good position to try and hide such information, assuming the library was your only reliable source for it.
Which it was, way back in the day. But now we have the internet, which…actually isn’t much better, honestly.

Another clear cut case of suppressing vital information.

Well, if anyone needed to be part of a conspiracy to hide information it would have to be … THE LIBRARIAN!
