My apologies. I felt we had moved onto a new topic. I won't let it happen again.

Sister Ekaterina - my reading shows the matter f the prices of the alchemical services has been taken down for review.  The matter of the library and books is a completely separate topic.

Father Haroldson,

I, as Chroniclerite, a Loremaster, and the High Scholar of the Mage's Guild, am all for the discussion of libraries, books, and knowledge in general.  However, what I believe Sister McKraeger was attempting to say kindly, but may need to be put more bluntly now, is that the place for such a conversation as you and Professor Suliman were partaking in is better suited for places away from the public eye, since it appears more an individual dialogue that can be spoken of in personal missives rather than cluttering the board, especially as amendments to a subject declared by the Chancellor of Trade and Guildmaster of the Merchant's Guild to be finished.  If such a conversation is wanted by you and the Professor in such a public location, which I would not necessarily be opposed to, perhaps a fresh piece of parchment elsewhere on this fine board would be more appropriate.

To whom it may concern:

Thank you for seperating this matter from the previous topic.  It is much appreciated.

I think there might have been some misunderstanding. Rudolf asked for the temporary removal of the Academy Potion shop. Unless things have changed between his last missive and this one, The Academy is still scheduled to open, merely without the controversial material.

"Competition" between multiple libraries will by it's very existence reduce and or eliminate the dissemination of knowledge. When the librarian of one says " you may not use my library if you have or ever will use the other library" and do not insult my intelligence by even considering the notion of "that won't happen" it will. We have one fine library as it is and I am quite certain that new additions to it are always welcome. As for turning the library into a financial endeavor I feel such is A) a fools errand and B) to the detriment of the people at large and again snuffs out dissemination of knowledge. However if you are insistent upon it I believe the proprietor of the library would be the one for you to make a private financial arrangement with. But then again who am I to say anything I'm just as one of our most esteemed lords once put it; "a dumb barbarian"
