I always enjoy the footnotes in Pratchett's books, and it's interesting to see the Librarian foot notes evolve over time where it's originally just an explanation of his origin to the point where everyone just views him as this sort of Librarian blob and nothing else.

There is a good discussion on this very issue in Terry Practchett: Guilty of Literature. I grabbed the book from my university's library, so I am not sure how easy it is to get a hold of elsewhere. It's a good read though if you are interested in the themes behind his writing.
