Marty snapped on a pair of rubber gloves and attached his electronic lockpick to the security pad outside of the library at the back entrance. He waited somewhat impatiently for the device to do its job, constantly surveying the empty passageway.

Finally he heard a click, a beep and then a buzzing noise as the electronic lock on the door released. Grabbing his bag, he quickly entered the library, locking the door behind him.

Spending weeks in the library had given him the opportunity to know where all the security cameras were and how best to avoid them. He carefully crawled around on the ground until he was able to get behind the circulation desk and when the security camera turned in just the right way dashed to the corner where the special collections entrance was.

Using the electronic lockpick again, Marty waited until he heard the familiar click, beep and buzz. He waited a second longer to make sure the security camera had moved to the right place and slipped into special collections, silently closing the door behind him.
