Alistair Vargrend Memorial Library

The Alistair Vargrend Memorial Library was the library in Bristol Manor shared by the Vargrend and Bristol Academies. It was presumably named after Alistair Vargrend.

It was located in the central, cylindrical portion of the manor (old keep); and occupied all of its second floor. It was connected to both the girls' and the boys' wings. The two halves were separated by a wall of bars, with the librarian's section in the middle in a cage like a bank teller. A cylindrical stone enclosure contained a spiral staircase, which led to the offices above as well as the dungeon and the crypts below. The third floor of the old keep contained the stacks where books not in the library were stored. The library enforced a restriction on book access to students from the Vindicator-worshiping families.

Several scholarship students from both academies worked part-time in the library, including
 * Mary Duffy
 * Patricia Ames
 * Timothy Evin
