"Find me cards equivalent to: Library of Alexandria"

Equivalent cards to Library of Alexandria (colorless lands that can tap for colorless and provide card draw based on hand size) are rare, but here are some with similar effects:
1. Arch of Orazca

  • {T}: Add {C}.
  • {5}, {T}: Draw a card. Activate only if you have the city’s blessing.

    Reason:     Provides colorless mana and card draw with a condition.
    2. Corymela, the Fractured Calm (not colorless, but a land that draws)
  • {T}: Add {C}.
  • {U}, {T}: If you have exactly seven cards in hand, draw a card.

    Reason:     Closest in condition, but adds blue.
    3. Geier Reach Sanitarium
  • {T}: Add {C}.
  • {2}, {T}: Each player draws a card, then discards a card.

    Reason:     Provides colorless mana and draw a card ability.

No existing land perfectly matches Library of Alexandria’s unique effect, but Arch of Orazca is the best colorless analog.

    City's Blessing

    Abilities/Keywords

    Ascend

    Rules

  • A permanent is any object on the battlefield, including tokens and lands. Spells and emblems aren't permanents.
  • Ascend on a permanent isn't a triggered ability and doesn't use the stack. Players can respond to a spell that will give you your tenth permanent, but they can't respond to getting the city's blessing once you control that tenth permanent. This means that if your tenth permanent is a land you play, players can't respond before you get the city's blessing.
  • If you cast a spell with ascend, you don't get the city's blessing until it resolves. Players may respond to that spell by trying to change whether you get the city's blessing.
  • If you control ten permanents but don't control a permanent or resolving spell with ascend, you don't get the city's blessing. For example, if you control ten permanents, lose control of one, then cast Golden Demise, you won't have the city's blessing and the spell will affect creatures you control.
  • If your tenth permanent enters the battlefield and then a permanent leaves the battlefield immediately afterwards (most likely due to the "Legend Rule" or due to being a creature with 0 toughness), you get the city's blessing before it leaves the battlefield.
  • Once you have the city's blessing, you have it for the rest of the game, even if you lose control of some or all of your permanents. The city's blessing isn't a permanent itself and can't be removed by any effect.

    Rules

  • If more than one player discards a card with madness simultaneously, the player whose turn it is puts their madness abilities onto the stack first, then each other player does the same in turn order. The last one put onto the stack resolves first, and a spell cast this way will resolve before resolving the next madness ability.
  • When you activate Geier Reach Sanitarium's last ability, first each player draws a card. Then the player whose turn it is selects a card from their hand and sets it aside without revealing it; proceeding in turn order, each other player does the same. Then the cards that were set aside are discarded at once.
