==Welcome==
The librarian spends most of their time in the [[library]] printing out a lot of copies of The Lusty Xenomorph Maid or running around in their red suit and welding through walls of everywhere they have no access (i.e. everywhere). The [[library]] itself has a permanence to its contents from game to game on the servers -- all properly uploaded books can be downloaded in any other round.


Librarian is a good role to play if you want to stay under the radar or good as a role to learn some basic mechanics of SS13, rarely will you see someone actually play as a librarian due to the lack of access and the fact that the library is not visited by many people.  
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!


The Librarian starts off behind the desk in the Library of the station (Duuh), and spawns with a scanner for books, and a neat tie and sweater!
[[File:Library.png|300px|thumb|alt=Library|The [[Library]]]]


The Library can be found in the Northwest wing of the station in the liesure department next to the chapel and botony, and across the hall from the Science department.
==Day in The Life of The Librarian==
(picture needed)
Sadly, you will not go on cool adventures to obtain magical artifacts. You will be giving out books, on the rare occasion that someone requests a book.(See Below) You will also occasionally have to replace the [[Chaplain]]'s  bible, after he beats one too many people with and is disarmed and the book spaced. The final area of your job is to upload new books to the archive (See Below). So, take your [[pen]] and [[paper]], and write down some screenplays! Printing a few books is cool, but don't be a dick and print 100 copies of one. All it does is crash people that right-click that pile.


The libarary contains bookshelves, able to hold books, some chairs and tables for liesure and relaxed reading, and a private area above for meetings or other purposes.  
==The Librarian and his [[Library]]==
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?


Behind the librarians desk is a computer and a printer able to print books for you to stock on the shelves! A recorder also spawns on the desk and can be used for any recording reasons, (but most likely will end up stolen...) and could also help you in case of security reasons! In the library, there is a book binder, and a check in/out computer, which are used to make books of your own! So feel free to write all the books you want (remembering that ERP in Yogstation is a bannable offence)
The barcode scanner will be needed for checking books into the local [[library]]'s computer. It has 4 settings, as follows:


==Stocking the Shelves==
Mode 0 : Scan book to local buffer.
The one thing that I notice when I walk into a library on a boring round, is the librarian never takes the time to stock the shelves! He just stands behind the counter reading. Stocking the shelves is quite an easy job, you print off the books you like, and place them on the shelves that represent the type of book! Informative books would go onto the bookshelf marked informative, fiction would go to fiction, You get the point! You can print a book by walking to the computer behind the librarians desk and checking the external archive. The books names will be labelled on the left, and the genre will be labelled to the right! Make sure you don't stock books on a genre they don't belong. Stocking the books is simple, bring the book to the shelves and click!
Mode 1 : Scan book to local buffer and set associated computer buffer to match.
Mode 2 : Scan book to local buffer, attempt to check in scanned book.
Mode 3 : Scan book to local buffer, attempt to add book to general inventory.


==Making a book==
(*Note:Use the scanner on the computer, otherwise it won't work)
Making a book is quite a quick job, and anybody can do it!


#Grab a pen and paper, and spin your magical yarn of, 'Wooah!'.
The [[Library]] is not your workspace, but a home, to you and your books. Your books are like people in a 1960s bus, so keep your books segregated. Sort them on their labeled book-shelves: Religious, Fiction, Adult (read: erotic fanfics), Reference, and the back room's Forbidden Knowledge. You can use your bookbag, which works like a mining satchel or plant bag, to carry multiple books at once. The latter section is great for hiding tomes if you're a cultist.
#Place the story into the book binder near the top right of the library and watch as your masterpiece pops out!
#Using a pen, you can sign your name, add more content, and title it!
#now your book is ready for viewers sensitive eyes! Take your book to the librarian (or yourself) and scan it into the computer using the scanner.
#Use the check in/out computer's 5th function to upload a new title to the archive.
#now you may add the category, change the author, and view the title!
#After your ready, click the upload command! Now many people can enjoy your masterpiece!


==Your own little hidin' hole==
==How To Add A Book To The Database==
Behind the library desk is a door to a tiny room with a shelve, a chair, your extra clothes, and your own desk! This is a great place to store your valuables, write your masterpieces, or hide from shitcurity!


==Breaking news==
# Get [[Paper]] and a [[Pen]].
The newscaster behind your desk allows you to put your camera to the test! Keep the crew informed on upcoming poetry readings, the clowns latest trickery, and recent slaughters! Photos taken by your camera can be uploaded to the newscasts!
# Write your love story about those [[Xeno|Lusty Xenos]] on the paper.
# Take your story to the East Back of the [[Library]] to the [[File:Book_Binder.png]] Book Binder, and slap that epic story onto the binder. This will spit out your new award winning story.
# Still have that pen? Good, you can sign your name, add more content, and even title it.
# This book is ready to be send though the Nanotrasen command! Ask your Librarian to scan this book into the computer, using the [[File:Scanner.png]] Scanner.
# Once scanned, use the [[File:Library_Computer.png]] [[Library Computer|Check In/Out Computer]]'s 5th function, tittled, ''"5. Upload New Title to Archive"''.
# Here you can change the category, change the author once more, and view the title.
# After reviewing the book, and being ready to publish, use the "UPLOAD" command.


==Traitoring==
== Breaking News! ==
Well, if you were unlucky enough to be a filthy librarian traitor.. Have fun! You will be a virtually useless traitor, your lack of access to doors and weapons will slow you down, however, there are some advantages, such as the fact that no-one will notice you missing or question you running around being absolutely useless.
Behind the library desk is a handy newscaster to work with. Since the librarian is given a tape recorder and a camera with spare film, this allows you to keep the crew informed of station events, such as [[Beyond the impossible|memorable performances by the clown]], interviews with prominent people, murders or even writing smutty tabloid articles. Photos from your camera can be attached to the news articles you post. Alternatively, you could use your photocopier to copy your ass and attach the results to your news articles.
 
The newscaster also can print out up to 15 newspapers, and can refilled by adding more paper. After that, you'll want to deliver the newspaper to frequently visited areas like the Medbay, Brig, and more.
 
==Sanctuary==
You have a little study with a bookshelf waiting to be filled with forbidden knowledge (read: pornography). In here, you <del>should</del> won't be safe from the [[Head of Security]] (read: [[shitcurity]]) who didn't like your poetry readings. He can just ask the AI to open the door. When the lynch mob inevitably forms after you read aloud [[Woody's Got Wood]], you can weld the door shut to buy yourself a precious few seconds before someone unwelds it, as the Head of Personnel will often storm the room, shoot you with an energy gun and hand you over to security officers. If he doesn't just laser you to death on the spot.
 
==Book'em Dano==
This is the hardest job to be a Traitor. However, if you are an expert at deconstruction and get a few good items, you shouldn't have TOO much difficulty, other than your piss all access. Don't forget, you're about as suspicious as an assistant, so get your stealing (or killing) done, then hole up in your private study until the heat dies down. However, unlike assistants, your outfit is quite special, so people will easily recognize you everywhere unless you change it. Emagging the library computer causes it to spit out a [[Tome|tome]], though you need to be a real cultist to read it. This can be used to confuse security, but you should be ready to get searched and brigged for some time.

Day in The Life of The Librarian

Sadly, you will not go on cool adventures to obtain magical artifacts. You will be giving out books, on the rare occasion that someone requests a book.(See Below) You will also occasionally have to replace the Chaplain's bible, after he beats one too many people with and is disarmed and the book spaced. The final area of your job is to upload new books to the archive (See Below). So, take your pen and paper, and write down some screenplays! Printing a few books is cool, but don't be a dick and print 100 copies of one. All it does is crash people that right-click that pile.

The Librarian and his Library

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 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?

The barcode scanner will be needed for checking books into the local library's computer. It has 4 settings, as follows:

Mode 0 : Scan book to local buffer.
Mode 1 : Scan book to local buffer and set associated computer buffer to match.
Mode 2 : Scan book to local buffer, attempt to check in scanned book.
Mode 3 : Scan book to local buffer, attempt to add book to general inventory.

(*Note:Use the scanner on the computer, otherwise it won't work)

The Library is not your workspace, but a home, to you and your books. Your books are like people in a 1960s bus, so keep your books segregated. Sort them on their labeled book-shelves: Religious, Fiction, Adult (read: erotic fanfics), Reference, and the back room's Forbidden Knowledge. You can use your bookbag, which works like a mining satchel or plant bag, to carry multiple books at once. The latter section is great for hiding tomes if you're a cultist.

How To Add A Book To The Database

  1. Get Paper and a Pen.
  2. Write your love story about those Lusty Xenos on the paper.
  3. Take your story to the East Back of the Library to the Book Binder.png Book Binder, and slap that epic story onto the binder. This will spit out your new award winning story.
  4. Still have that pen? Good, you can sign your name, add more content, and even title it.
  5. This book is ready to be send though the Nanotrasen command! Ask your Librarian to scan this book into the computer, using the Scanner.png Scanner.
  6. Once scanned, use the Library Computer.png Check In/Out Computer's 5th function, tittled, "5. Upload New Title to Archive".
  7. Here you can change the category, change the author once more, and view the title.
  8. After reviewing the book, and being ready to publish, use the "UPLOAD" command.

Breaking News!

Behind the library desk is a handy newscaster to work with. Since the librarian is given a tape recorder and a camera with spare film, this allows you to keep the crew informed of station events, such as memorable performances by the clown, interviews with prominent people, murders or even writing smutty tabloid articles. Photos from your camera can be attached to the news articles you post. Alternatively, you could use your photocopier to copy your ass and attach the results to your news articles.

The newscaster also can print out up to 15 newspapers, and can refilled by adding more paper. After that, you'll want to deliver the newspaper to frequently visited areas like the Medbay, Brig, and more.

Sanctuary

You have a little study with a bookshelf waiting to be filled with forbidden knowledge (read: pornography). In here, you should won't be safe from the Head of Security (read: shitcurity) who didn't like your poetry readings. He can just ask the AI to open the door. When the lynch mob inevitably forms after you read aloud Woody's Got Wood, you can weld the door shut to buy yourself a precious few seconds before someone unwelds it, as the Head of Personnel will often storm the room, shoot you with an energy gun and hand you over to security officers. If he doesn't just laser you to death on the spot.

Book'em Dano

This is the hardest job to be a Traitor. However, if you are an expert at deconstruction and get a few good items, you shouldn't have TOO much difficulty, other than your piss all access. Don't forget, you're about as suspicious as an assistant, so get your stealing (or killing) done, then hole up in your private study until the heat dies down. However, unlike assistants, your outfit is quite special, so people will easily recognize you everywhere unless you change it. Emagging the library computer causes it to spit out a tome, though you need to be a real cultist to read it. This can be used to confuse security, but you should be ready to get searched and brigged for some time.
