Lost Library will not place.
Can you give more context, screenshot, etc? Please be descriptive when reporting bugs.
I just encountered something similar. When I zoomed out it almost seemed like maybe the lost library wasn't able to be placed because my city was too close to it. Eventually, I managed to make the building sound, but no building ever sprouted up.

There is the saved game, go south to the town on the southern island (port Royal). Try and build a lost library, it wont place, it doesnt do anything when you try and click the button.
Correction to this; the lost library does place, it's simply not visible on the zoomed in map screen. It takes up the correct tile space and I believe is still grants the bonus to research. It shows up when zoomed out and places when you just click anywhere, but it doesn't remove itself from the build queue (although it's no longer selectable) Save of one is here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=1NBCZ2OU
I've seen this too. Also you can keep building it over and over again, it shows up underlying other cities and reduces your research time to 1 turn, for every tech. You can really burn through the tech tech tree this way. In fact I've had 2 games so far where the lost library was available and the bug was repeatable in both.
Still won't place, the tile doesn't get flagged as unavailable, so yeah you can build it over and over but won't see it on the tile. At least I don't.
Btw, the same thing happens with Refugee Camps now.
Same issue here.. I built 1 temple first and came back to see that the temple was still listed in my choices. I then tried creating another and noticed that it was not gone from my building choices (like normal). So, I tried building and building and building and it allowed me to until I was out of resources.
I'm pretty sure that the source of the issue is that the tile requirements for the Lost Library and some Refugee Camp variants are set to zero. Same thing with the upgraded Kingdom Gardens, which is what makes them disappear when you research Harvesting.
I actually got a glitch in 2A where I could build an indefinite number of lost libraries for no space cost. Made research really fun!
I have the problem in beta 3 where it will not place at all. It won't show up in the queue. The area where it should go doesn't highlight. No materials are consumed.
FWIW, my Refugee camps build perfectly fine. I have never had access to the Lost Library as of yet though. I have this kind of error with garden's after the first one is built in my first city though.
Lost Library issue seen here as well.
As for the Garden issue, I see that when the Town has any "other" Food resource associated with it. Once you have some/any Food production other than a first off Garden, they won't place afterwards. Glitch or Bug? Unknown.
