Year: 1st

I am delighted to have the first book requests of the year. Both are excellent choices, and my personal favorite play of Shakespeare's is A Midsummer Night's Dream. Somehow Puck brings a vivality of life to that play that not even other great Shakespeare characters can match. The books you requested I have located and have them in my office. You may pick them up or if you are too busy to make it send an owl and I will deliver them to your head of house. Hope to see you at the library event tonight, Humphrey.

Humphrey Williams knocked on the door to Librarian Sollmann's Office. Wait, he said students were always welcome to enter. He realized with slight shock that he did not have to knock before entering. What a novel concept. "Hello, Librarian Sollmann. I just came to pick up my books." He then noticed that the office was empty. A note was left on top of the two books he had requested.

Humphrey Williams,
Know that I am currently out strolling the grounds. Here are your books. You may take them andreturn them in a timely fashion.
Your Librarian

Humphrey read the note and then grabbed his books. What a nice librarian. One of the easier people to talk to he had met. He left the office and closed the door behind him. The boy coud not wait to crack open those two books. But he knew he should do it in his dorm. So that he could place them in a safe place when he needed to set them down.

Rifling through the desk of the previous librarian Morgan found, among the stacks of paper, a list called 'Book Requests' she saw only one student on the list. She noted that the item was late and jotted down a message to the boy about book he had checked out. Setting the papers in order she smiled, hoping that more students would take part in the program.
