About the Story
As a student with an IF assignment looming, you need to get a biography out of the library - however, it is a very rare book, and surely you won't be allowed to take it with you... [--blurb from The Z-Files Catalogue]

SPAG
It is possible to create good interactive fiction based entirely on everyday experiences if the writing stands out enough to carry the game on atmosphere (see A Change in the Weather, below). It is also possible to make a good game out of a fundamentally unpleasant situation (Theatre, for example, or Bureaucracy) if the game provides gripping drama or offers a fresh perspective on the events in question. Library does neither, offering a fairly routine scenario executed in expository but uninspiring prose.

It probably takes about 10 minutes to solve the game, but until you've worked out how, expect a challenge that will take roughly 45 minutes to 1 hour. A fairly easy game.
