Sarah was going to read the book to honour the legacy of those families.
While she waited for a response, she looked through the card of people that had previously taken it out. This book was old and Sarah wondered how many more family surnames had joined the rankings of extinction. Students had checked out this book centuries before. Hermione Granger was written there, along with Albus Dumbledore, this book was history itself!
Leobald eyed the book in front of him with furrowed brows. It was a charmed book very much like the ‘monster book of monsters’ which you need to stroke the spine off before you could open it. This book however wasn’t giving up its secrets besides it being yet another encyclopedia but of plants and herbs rather than creatures.
Getting frustrated he huffed loudly to himself. So focused on one troublesome book Mr Kitrdige didn’t see Sarah Edwards until a book was placed on the desk in front of him next to the other one. Looking up he quickly plastered on a smile.
"Good day Sarah, you can return it in 3 weeks. If you need more time then let me know." Taking the library card he briefly eyed the title of the book
"A nature’s nobility, wizards genealogy is a solid read, are you sure you don’t want to borrow something lighter?" Mr Kitridge asked.

"I'm returning this one," she said as she pushed Not Over Easy: the Diary of a Dragon Breeder forwards a bit more. "But I'd like to check this one out."
Yeah, Kurumi knew the jump of subjects from dragons to timeturners and hour glasses was a bit...odd, but ironically still creature related in its own little roundabout way.
One of the perks of being a librarian was that you had a huge collection of books at your disposal. Turning the page of the book he had just checked out for his own leisure he heard the distinct clap of footsteps coming nearer. Taking a sip of coffee from the mug on the counter he beamed at the sight of the Gryffindor prefect.
"Good day Miss Hollingberry, back already?"
With a few swift motions Leobald fetched the appropriate card from the Gryffindor card case and put it back into the returned book. Putting away the book on the returned trolley he with another swift motion took out the card from the new book about time turners and hour glasses. Curious Mr Kitridge wondered.
"Not interested in dragon breeders anymore?" "The book needs to be returned in 3 weeks. Let me know as always if you need to re-borrow it." From dragons to time turners, the leap was a weird one but Kurumi probably just wanted to broaden her knowledge.
