   A spaceship landed, and an alien emerged.
   "We come in peace," they said, "Take us to your librarian."
   "Er... Don't you mean our leader?"
   "Why? We already have leaders."

     @MicroSFF They need a 150th anniversary edition of Middlemarch, the Thursday night knitting circle team that meets on room 5, and a working fax machine.

     @MicroSFF Like Lesley Knope said, librarians are the biker gangs of civil servants.

     Of course the aliens want to know them.

     @MicroSFF
     Turns out they need to print something and their printer at home isn't working.

     Hopefully they remember their email's password. :P
