"And do you have anything about muggle royalties?" he said following his first question.
Madame Kohan glanced at the piece of parchment that the boy held. Now that book...she hadn't come across it but that didn't mean that they didn't have it. She couldn't memorize every title in the library, of course.

"Let's see..." She stepped off of her stool and bent down below the desk, her eyes coming level with a large open book that listed the titles available in the library. "Sizemore..Sizemore..." She murmured. "Well, here's Samson and Shelby.."

With a frown, she straightened up. "I'm afraid we don't have that book, but I can always look into ordering it. I can let you know when it comes in." She offered.

"As for Muggle royalties, I assume you mean that of people such as Queen Elizabeth? If so, then you can find that in the same area as the other Muggle books you've requested. It'll be towards the end of the bookshelf though."

Hmm, must be a Muggle Studies assignment...Madame Kohan thought as a Slytherin approached her for help on the subject of Da Vinci. "Leonardo Da Vinci?" She repeated. "A great man with a fascinating history! Fortunately, we do have a few books on him, though if you can't find it then perhaps they simply haven't been placed back on their shelves."

As she turned to look towards the small cart that usually held a few stray books, her eyes lighted on a rather large volume. Lifting it, she placed it on the desk. "This should be of help to you, and the book 'Muggle Inventions' should be of assistance. I just pointed that young Gryffindor in the same direction."
