-Always know of some strange, obscure tome that is exactly the book you need (regardless of whether it's the book you want.)
-Return books late or damaged at your peril, though.
-When you're walking through the immense shelves, and you see something in the dim light ahead hanging down in front of the books. You approach. Suddenly, as you get close, you realize it's a huge, scaly tail. You follow it with your gaze up to the top of the shelf to see a pair of glowing eyes staring back at you.
"You'll want to take a right at the end of this row," the dragon says. "Then go three rows down and turn left." The tail retracts back up into the shadows above the books, and with a sudden, fluid movement, the dragon is gone.
You never actually told the dragon what you were looking for.
-"Oh you don't need a library card." *growling chuckle* "I will remember your scent."
