Welcome to the secret library. A parcel changed desks twice and its first shelf label is no longer current. Your team has the original records on the table. First recover five pieces of information, then use the final plan to locate the returned story parcel. Keep every result beside its badge so another teammate can check your reasoning.

Start with the status field in Borrower slips.
The tag links an item to a bay; rows in separate records need not line up.
Keep only entries meeting every status test. Follow each printed join to the report field; do not guess from row position.
LEAF
Check source status first, then join the matching tag and bay. The useful information comes from separate records, not their printed row order. Result: LEAF.
Look at earliest start, each window end and the arrival deadline.
The journey uses time as well as the job; add both to the start of each window.
Check all three conditions for each window. A slot can be long enough yet start too early or arrive too late.
MID
Add job time and travel time to each printed start. Compare the sum with both that window's end and the deadline, then reject early starts. Result: MID.
Find all the event cards and the before notes.
Connect cards linked by the notes; a card position is counted from the beginning of the completed order.
Check every before relationship, then read only the requested position. The printed card arrangement is not the answer order.
6
The only order is Log return > Check title > Find shelf > Place parcel. Position 3 carries 6. Result: 6.
Find the three people, the three items and the forbidden pairings.
Each item is used once. A person ruled out of two items must have the third.
Place the most restricted person, remove that item from the others, then use the remaining rule. Read the target person only after checking all pairs.
8
Mia has Poem; Leo has Fable; Nia has Atlas. Leo's item gives 8. Result: 8.
Find the column letters and row numbers on the grid.
A coordinate gives column first and row second; keep the printed coordinate order.
Read the full word before using the conversion table. If the word is missing, recheck each row and column rather than choosing a similar word.
8
B1, C2, C2, D3 reads BOOK. The conversion table gives 8. Result: 8.
Keep the five named results beside the final plan and find the key for each badge.
Each badge controls a different fact, road leg, order note, pulse or habitat layer. Use the matching key exactly once.
Check the completed product against all five recovered facts. If two answers remain, locate the fact that distinguishes them rather than guessing.
BAY-B
Translate each recovered result through its named evidence key. Each location must match all five recovered features. Both values occur equally often in each column, so the location plan alone cannot identify the answer. Checked result: BAY-B.
Pause whenever the group needs a break. This is a planning estimate.
