Why didn't she simply have her own copy owled to her upon release?

That was the problem. She did.

It had arrived bright and early that very morning and she was absolutely positive she'd left it at her desk. After a stressful morning with stressful students, she'd been looking forward to some afternoon purusing but when she'd returned to her office however, it was gone.

Joyce Darlington was NOT one for misplacing things, so this was either someone's idea of a prank or the house-elves had moved it during their cleaning. What other explanation could there be?

So here she was.

From her seat behind the desk, Kassie couldn't help but notice the displeased look upon the Transfiguration professor's face. However, before she could get out a single word, Joyce had passed her. Apparently, she was on some sort of mission. After placing a bookmark in her book of the day, she stepped out from behind the desk and sort of flowed over to Joyce's side.

"May I help you find something?" She asked, just above a whisper. There were several students studying and Kassie didn't want to disturb them. "The library has a lovely selection to choose from."
