Not exactly sure where to look at. I have already set counsel-find-file-ignore-regexp to hide hidden files and ivy-extra-directories to nil so that I shouldn't get . and .. in the listing. But couldn't figure why find-library isn't working as expected.

You can use counsel-load-library.

Would be nice to have counsel-find-library - I just want to visit the file to take a look and not necessarily load it.

I think I can reuse your code to build counsel-find-library but better to see it in counsel or a simpler way to filter out .. in find-library output.

You can find with counsel-load-library. Just press C-. instead of RET. Same approach as counsel-M-x.

Nice! Didn't know about that. Thanks!

* This is a helpful and unsurprising alternative to using C-. with counsel-load-library
* Extract counsel-library-candidates which is used by both counsel-load-library and
  counsel-find-library
* Use counsel-find-library in place of counsel-load-library in the docs, in order to better match
  the feel of the surrounding keybindings, which are all locate-based rather than mutate-based.
