Title: New Library Opens in Cove Post by: Ileana Leontine on July 22, 2007, 06:52:49 pm (http://xs217.xs.to/xs217/07290/Newlibrary1.PNG)
Men and women of Cove, It is my pleasure to announce that construction has finished on a building which I hope will serve as a central respository for books in Cove - Leontine House. Along with a large range of books - ever expanding - it also has reading and writing rooms. We also offer a number of services related to books; we can, for a small fee, create you a copy of any of our books, or track down a certain book you are looking for. More importantly, the Library will be accepting - and paying for - commissions of books. From time to time we will issue requests for books on a certain topic and permit any interested party to write a book on that topic [OOC note: Command-approved citizen tasks]. We will accept books on any topic and provided it meets standards if will be put into the library and you will be paid for your work. Please find enclosed a map to the location of the library and a list of the stock we currently have. Regards, Ileana Leontine Leontine House Librarian Current Stock Library stock is divided into three groups; scholar, practical, and literature.
