You have to sort by task where they show up but labelled wrong, it is as I understand it an error that occurs when you have different tasks with the exact same text for an option.

Give everyone something out of it and spread the wealth. We have plenty on our plates and I don't view any of these works as useful or central for our current official library and project. Sheets for the lols, and ring schema as extremely useful enchantment information that absolutely anyone would be interested in.

Let's support Roswita's baby religion!

Or you could smuggle them out of here and into your own library to keep the Liber Mortis company.
Sold!

After all the time spent killing Skaven and Ghouls, if we suddenly decide we have no problem with our allies being hungry for flesh people might think Mathilde was racist :D

A very good haul for a half-action commitment and some called-in favours. Learning Nehekharan is going to join the Grand Battle For Personal Actions. It'll need a strong showing before the shine wears off, and it's up against the preparations for the Orb Dunking.
 
So future Library actions after bookmining, any thoughts? There's going to Karak Vlag to use that Transcendent Boon to access to what writings they have stored from Kislev, I have a thought of trying to expand access into Bretonnia to get obscure, antiquarian, or esoteric tier of books, there's hiring scribes, spending a Great Deed, or access and sharing agreements with other libraries.

Probably scribes first. I don't think we need to cash in a boon to get Vlag's archives, but we do need scribes to make copies of their stuff (and anyone else's as well; not every library can just be looted like Drakenhof).
 
@Boney When two or more votes have the same text, the vote tally will group them all together. Even if they're in different [categories], which means the tally is supposed to separate them... it doesn't. Leading to things like how if you sort the tally by line, it looks like we have 105 You votes for [ARMARIUM] out of 115 voters total.

I definitely want to hire scribes so we can later actually use our Great Deed to copy the University of Nuln's library.

Karak Vlag is a close second, but a while back it was brought up that if we really want to worry about our library's maintenance and preservation, we could either try to entice a single Runelord to help with a formation, or get a lot of Runesmiths to do lots of minor runes all over the place. And Karak Vlag has noted that it has a lot of Runesmiths... It's definitely a possibility.

I think making an agreement with another library is next after whatever we choose for Vlag.

I'd like to set up the Ranald bounty thing at some point. I imagine most turns it'll be a dud, but every so often it'll spit out something interesting. That said, there are concerns about antagonising other libraries through this behaviour. At least it'll be passively adding to our collection over time.

But I think the two big things to focus on right now are using the Great Deed to copy an Imperial Library (I think we're aiming for one in Nuln?) and the Vlag boon to grab all their (currently hypothetical) Fire Spire texts, both of which require us to recruit an army of scribes first.

The council is probably in need of funding. Zhufbar is wealthy already and we don't need more personal wealth.

The books belong in a library, our library. It's probably one of the safest places to store dark tomes, and we should be able to get some useful things out of them. Regardless, it makes our library more impressive and thus helps us get more books.

The ring notes are potentially very powerful assets. The ring is capable of powerful healing and was an item originally intended to bind the vampires to Nagash's will. We should be able to glean something of use out of this.
 
Question: Does Egrimm know Nehekharan? If he doesnt, having him learn it could help with their waystone lore for the project, and learning together for the WEBMAT AP

Using the Transcendent Boon is overkill. Let's just keep it in our pocket - Transcendent Boons don't grow on trees. Right now networking with other Libraries and recruiting a lot of scribes sounds really good. We can just throw Belegar's money at the problem and he's probably not going to miss it much.

If we keep the Flesh for ourselves, we can sell access to it again and again. If we sell the book itself, we can get a one time deal for more comprehensiveness, but at the cost of reducing the maximum prestige of our collection. It'd be a decent trade if we were trying to fund our library all by ourselves, but we do have other options for library access, whereas Prestigious Book ownership changes hands much less often.

A note: Boney never said we needed to use the Boon to do it. I imagine they'll want something (though perhaps our library is awesome enough that being able to get copies of our books is good enough for them), but this isn't Transcendent Boon territory, I don't think.

My priority at this point is scribes so we can start ctrl-c ctrl-v-ing other libraries, and following that I'll play it by ear.
