(iMac Sierra 10.12.5, plenty of memory) I just did Library Reinstall, successfully. At library/application support/Garage Band/instrument library I now have 3.31 Gigbytes of data, presumably instrument sounds. But under new track / search "library" it has very few choices. How do I get the reinstalled library to a place where I can access it?

Do you mean, you used the command "GarageBand > Soundlibrary > Reinstall Sound Library"?

3.3.1 is GB is just the basic set. You will not see many sounds, when you select a software instrument track. To get the full set, use also "GarageBand > Soundlibrary > Download all available sounds".
To be sure, that GarageBand will see the new installed sounds, I'd also restart the Mac.
The sounds should appear in the the /Library folder at the top level of your System drive:
/Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library/

Mea culpa
Used the reload all sounds command, showed 3 or 4 gig downloaded. But, didn't didn't appear to show that much increase in the library section left side of screen. Then I started digging/analyzing the library and found all the choices not there before
So. Problem solved
Thanks folks for responding.
