Mythical Beasts

Two of the most talked about and least seen mythical entities are the Library Coordinator Job and the Library Technical Coordinator Job. Rumors about these beasts have been circulating the whole school year. The Black Queen has assured the White Tornado that the two "Jobs" are real and would be visible to all this weekend. Well, the weekend isn't over yet. Maybe they will suddently materialize. Silver is taking a Missouri (show me) attitude toward the whole thing.
The White Tornado, Silver, and Sage have been agitating the village librarians about Call Numbers. Several years of not allowing the village librarians to Organize has taken a toll of the libraries. In addition, GoG has been holding classes, teaching the basics of Library Management. This is really unfortunate, since GoG has never practiced Library Management herself. She's probably quite expert at bookstore management (She works for or owns part of a bookstore the Duchy buys from, can you say "conflict of interest"?) but Library Management is a total mystery to her. As a librarian, GoG is a hedge witch. However, I think that hedge witch might just be a disguise. I think she might be an agent of KAOS, Kommittee to Abolish Organized Systems, a highly secret, very dangerous, anti-library, terrorist organization. Was the librarian who shelved the books by size was influenced by GoG or possibly even a protege? If there were no more libraries, more people would buy books.
