This is more bane than blessing, since several titles that never should have seen the light of day are forever mingled in with literary classics shamelessly plagiarized from the internet, and also a lot of H.P. Lovecraft. Ba-zing!

First things first, stock your [[library]] with books that matter. At the start of the station, your bookshelfs will be EMPTY! Your fellow crew members will not want to stay in a [[library]] that has no books. To fix this use the [[Library]]'s [[Library Computer|Check In/Out Computer]]'s and use its function, "4. Connect to External Archive". Here is the main dish of your sum total of existence, to sort out in the mess of books, and find only the BEST. The books are not sorted, or sortable, and look to have no order what so ever. You will even find many books' copies in the archive. To retrieve the selected book, simply click ORDER, the Check-In/Out Computer's printer will hum as it produces a completely bound book. How did it do that? <br>

The [[Library]] is not your workspace, but a home, to you and your books. Your books are like people in a 1960's bus, so keep your books segregated. Sort them on their labeled book-shelves: Religious, Fiction, Adult (read: erotic fan-fics), Reference, and the back room's Forbidden Knowledge. The latter section is great for hiding tomes if you're a cultist.
