You aren?t suppose to be fighting them, I can?t imagine getting thru the entire thing actually fighting those things. I?d probably have run out of ammo.
You can stare them down. Ulman tells you this before he leaves. When they see you and come towards you stay still and aim at their face. Move back a few steps when they roar and stamp at you. They will turn around and leave you be. You just have to watch for holes in the floor or ceiling and keep alert, you don?t want them getting behind you. ALL of them can be dealt with like this. Even the black ones, you just have less room for error with them.

Technically you aren't even supposed to fight them, everyone advises you to run, and you get an achievement if you ever manage to kill one. That being said, Get a pneumatic rifle, pump it up and try to get a few headshots. If the librarian is moving around too much just go for center of mass hits. Even if it takes 10-15 shots to take it down(which it wont), you will be able to get all your ammunition back from the corpse. You can actually use the same trick to kill those flying 'demons;' although with them you are more likely to miss and lose ammunition.
Just fired 2033 up.
Tried sneaking. According to the wiki it's really hard to sneak once you buy heavy armor. Didn't work.
Tried the staring down thing. Those fucks didn't leave me alone, and every three steps I'd have to stare another down.
So I said fuck it and Rambo'd it. I entered with around 70 shotgun shells, 2 sticky pipebombs, and 130 dirty 5.45 rounds, and 40 MGR. When I left, I had less than 10 shells, around thirty 5.45, almost no MGRs and no pipebombs.
Thank god for the Heavy Shotgun + Bayonet. Stab a Librarian in the face, unload all six or five shots, pull out my VSV and finish them off with around fifteen shots of 5.45 bullets.
As I said. Fucking bulletsponges.
