Goofs
The scroll leading to King Solomon's mines is supposedly 3000+ years old, however Carson uses modern music notes and a five line staff to interpret it. The five line staff and modern music notes (like those shown on the scroll) weren't used until the early Baroque music period (mid 1600s).

Quotes
Uncle Jerry: You should be back at your stuffy job, stacking books.
Flynn Carsen: [after whipping a spear around in the air] You'd be surprised what you can learn at the library.

Enjoyable...

If you liked the first Librarian movie you'll like it too. This film picks up right where the first film ended. This time the theme is good old King Solomon's mines... sometimes I really wonder how many more adventure movies will be based on this thing. The shooting locations are nice, the action sequences are entertaining. The ending is predictable, but fun.

Noah Wyle again does a very entertaining smart job as Flynn. But I'm not sure about the point behind casting old and partly anorexic Gabrielle Anwar in this physically challenging role. Yes, she was a real beauty in her times, but here she looks quite gross. Anyway, no need to dwell much into such trivial matters... the movie is sure to deliver what it's supposed to in the end.
