To all Scholars, Researchers, and the Improbably Bored of Fairdale--

The Healer's Guild maintains a private library. Persons interested in perusing the library may do so for a small fee. We have recently exhaustively cataloged the contents of the library to make it more accessible to both serious scholars and the casually curious alike. The entries are listed below, with authors and dates of publication when available, and parenthetical notes on interesting or unique volumes. Some of the titles speak to the age and prestige of the collection. Some attempt has been made to sort this list by subject.

To all interested parties, please stop by the Healer's Guild and speak to the guild member on duty for more information.
