Library is Open, Wednesday 2/1

Zero opens the Library and heads back into the stacks, returning a few minutes later with that which she sought: The Amethyst Flower, the sequel to The Jade Flower. Today, there will be silly romance novels, and it will be good.

"The..." she says, shocked. "The card catalogue? You don't have a computer database?"

"Um. No. That would take skills, which we do not have. Special Collections is on the computer, but that's guesswork at best." Zero indicates a corner that remains dusty and ominous-looking, no matter how many people visit it. "The card catalogue's over there. Is...that a problem?"

"I just... well," she says, flustered, "I haven't used a card catalogue since I was in college ... oh really!!!"

Zero looks around for anyone else who could help--she really wants to find out what Running Wolf MacGregor's secret is. Seeing no one handy, she sighs and marks her place before standing up. "Come along, then."

"Thank you," she says. "Identity crises, please."

"Yes, ma'am." Zero pulls out the Subject: H-K drawer and flips through it for a few moments. "Here we are. Identity crises. Looks like they're in several different sections."

Eighth sighs and wonders why on earth she decided to go look at information stored in tactile objects.

"Well, let me see the call numbers then," she says. "And I do thank you for your assistance," she adds as an afterthought.

Zero steps aside so she can get at the cards, and shoves the notepad and pencil they keep on top of the card catalogue closer to her. "It's what we're here for. Don't hesitate to ask if you need anything else."

Eighth easily memorizes all of the numbers and then looks up at the young woman with a small smile. "Thanks, I do appreciate it. Have a lovely day."

And she strides off to find a book or two that might help.

Zero blinks after her. She didn't even use the paper. Zero hopes she'll be able to remember where she was going and not get lost in the stacks.

Oh, well, it's not like she was going into Special Collections or anything. And Zero has a dark secret to find out!
