Thank you for listing those for me. I've checked all of them and still can't find my document library. I actually did end up finding the delete action in Controlpoint but it has 'None' for who deleted it. Seems like SharePoint went screwy on the 9th and didn't record any deletions in the recycle bin.

Is there any way to tell in the SharePoint logs what happened to this file?

Was the doc library created from the SharePoint interface or programmatically from a custom app? A site delete call can be called from code. And then the library is gone.
