The Library

The Library of Semper is the largest repository of information in the world.

The staff of the Library maintain a catalogue of material gathered from around the world, with departments specialising in all classifications (still using the Dewey Decimal system). There are also departments that focus on the gathering of digital source material (such as credible news sites, online journals, and e-books), world Newspapers, and historical documents.

All material is collected and scanned into a digital format.

The majority of the contents of The Library can be accessed through the use of Semper's Data Pads, and wearable tech. Some items due to their rarity or delicate state are only accessible in the digital format.

The contents of the Library help the Sections of Semper and their Specialists to perform their duties, allowing them to keep up to to date with the latest research and developments in their respective fields. The digitised contents also allow Cyber to keep the AI construct Goldberry up to date

The Library houses some of the rarest documents and publications in history. How they manage to acquire them so regularly is the subject of much discussion in academic and antiquarian circles.

Any original piece is stored in hermetically sealed containers and placed into stasis chambers with electronic monitoring to preserve the item for as long as possible.

There are some items which, despite being sourced and scanned, are not made available to a wider readership. This has led to rumours of a "Dark Library" existing.The contents of this alternative Library are subject of debate inside Semper, but any suggestion of its existence does not seem to have passed the walls.

The Library has recently expanded its operations to include artifacts and items of significant historical interest. It has been responsible for the rediscovery of "lost" artworks and ancient artifacts of significant historical value..

The staff working in the Library are naturally called Librarians, though not all the staff are actually Librarians.The Senior management hold the title of Librarian, with the head of the Section (Rank 2) and Conclave member regarded as Chief Librarian.

Other positions include custodian, technician, curator, collector, and novice.
