The other commands related to find-library are setup via
find-function-setup-keys. The equivalents of find-library
are on C-x F, C-x K and C-x V and then on the C-x 4 and
C-x 5 locations too.

I use this often if I want to visit a library regardless of what is
near point. If I want to open embark (say because I just updated
it), I use C-x L and enter "embark" via completing-read.
It's very convenient.
