A day in the life of a librarian

This book follows a librarian through the work day, and describes the occupation and what the job requires.

The spellshop

"Kiela has always had trouble dealing with people. Thankfully, as librarian at the Great Library of Alyssium, she and her assistant Caz--a magically sentient spider plant--have spent the last decade sequestered among the empire's most precious spellbooks, preserving their magic for the city's elite. Then a revolution begins and the library goes up in flames. She and Caz flee with all the spellbooks they can carry and head to a remote island Kiela never thought she'd see again: her childhood home. Taking refuge there, Kiela discovers, much to her dismay, a nosy--and very handsome--neighbor who can't take a hint and keeps showing up day after day to make sure she's fed and help fix up her new home. In need of income and reluctantly inspired by the beauty and people of the island who have welcomed her into their hearts, Kiela discovers something that even the bakery in town doesn't have: jam. With the help of an old recipe book her parents left her and a bit of illegal magic, her cottage garden is soon covered in ripe berries that become the town's, and her handsome neighbor's, new favorite confection. But magic can do more than make life a little sweeter, so Kiela decides to open the island's first-ever and much-needed secret spellshop. Her plan comes with risks--the empire condemns the use of unsanctioned magic, and the consequence of sharing spells with commoners is death. But Kiela has only just found a place that feels like home and people who feel like family, and she'll risk anything for a chance at happiness."--.

The Eraser strikes back

"The Library of Doom's greatest foe, the Eraser, has caught the Librarian in a lethal trap. Now the hero is chained down and a giant super-eraser swings above him, getting closer with every swipe. Can the Librarian escape the doom device, or will he be wiped out for good?"--Provided by publisher.

The haunted handwriting

"In the dark a detached human hand wearing a black ring seeks someone to read the words of the magic spell it writes: a spell that will bring the evil Dr. Merlinus back to life--and the Librarian must act fast to prevent Merlinus from making a young boy his next victim. Includes discusson questions"--OCLC.

Shifting shelves

"Last seen in the oversized books section, Turnus the page has disappeared, and now the Librarian must venture into the Shifting Shelves, a maze of constantly moving book shelves created by the evil wizard who once possessed all the treasures of the library; he finds Turnus, but the boy is stuck to a glowing red book, and the Librarian must find a way to break this curse if the two of them are ever to make it back to the Library"--OCLC.

Monster in the margins

"A bored student becomes trapped in the pages of a book when his doodles turn into a menacing monster"--OCLC.
