Madame Rowena's Office

[MadameRowena]

*Thinking that you know far too little about you resident librarian you come into her office which before had been just another room for books. She has a large cherry wood desk and the walls seem like they are made out of bookshelves because you can hardly see any wall behind them. An oak ladder leans against one of the bookshelves and runs along the rail magically as certain books come off the shelves and others are replaced with an invisible hand as the ladder passes. Books are scattered all about the floors in large stacks but as you move towards Madame Rowena's desk you arrive at two large leather chairs in front of her desk. Along the bookshelves behind her desk however you see many pictures suspended mid-air without frames. Many are of the librarian on her expeditions during her holiday. The one that catches you eye; however, is where Madame Rowena is standing next to a cave wall where an ancient family tree is displayed. Away from her pictures frames you see a swirling pensive and numerous jeweled books in a glass cabinet behind her desk. You see that a brass lock holds the cabinet closed and look away in order to not attract attention to yourself. On her desk, a large scroll has been rolled out and books used are used paper weights to keep the scroll from curling. The scroll seems completely black, but as you look through the magnifying glass suspended in the air; you see very ancient scriptures and symbols from ancient wizarding books. At this very moment Madame Rowena comes through the door and is excited to see her first visitor*

"Hello! How are you today? I was just doing some research on the four founders of Hogwarts, a particular hobby of mine. Please come in, is there anything in particular I can help you with?” says Madame Rowena with great warmth.

An owl swooped in and dropped a piece of parchment on the Professor's desk. Written on it in a loopy handwriting are the following words:

Quote:

P.S. Come with an open mind!

*Madame Rowena picks up the message on her desks and read it with a vacant expression. She puts the invitation down and stares off into the distance until a wide smile surfaces on her face. She folds the invitation and tucks it away within her robes*

Mary came in the office and saw Madam Rowena looking at her.She went to her and said. 'Hello, Madam.I'm Mary and I would just like to know you more. I'm new here and I would like it very much if you just say what to do here, you know, I was raised by Muggles so I don't know anything about magic.' Mary said, looking at her.She looked around the whole room, waiting for her to reply.

[MadameRowena]

"Hello Mary," she says while gesturing to the seat in front of her desk. "I am no expert to introducing a muggle raised with to the wizarding world but that does not mean I will not try. Is there anything you wanted to know about in particular?"

[Bamby717]

‘Well, Madame, this library is really huge.How do you find out the book we want?I mean, is there any magical ways to find it, or are there sections named and like that?And, in the Muggle libraries, there are cards and everything.Is there something like that here, Madame?’ Mary asked to the beaming Madame.Wait a minute, she doesn’t know her name. ‘Oh sorry, Madame, I don’t know your name?Can you please say it.’ she asked, shaking her blonde hair behind..

[MadameRowena]

"Actually, we have a very straightforward system in place in the library. If you go to the library bookshelves you will see a large book at the end of the bookshelves which is the library catalogue. In this book you write the title of the book you are looking for, or a keywork and titles will appear instantly. Beside the titles listed you will be told on which bookshelf it is and you can find your book title afterward. If you still need help feel free to ask me but it is fairly simple."

*Mary nods in understanding*

"Also, you may call me Madame Rowena," she states.
