Bookhouse

It is ordered by this Court that Mr. Chamblen shall pay and disburse unto Sir John Jolles Knight and Alderman the [sum] of [£200], to be by them expended towards the preparing of free stone for the and beautifiing of A new Councell Chamber and bookhouse.

The overall mode of the bookhouses is the same as for the rest of the house: a Free-Style Classicism based on wood construction.

There were bookhouses, along with stinktanks where you could drink up and listen to awful poetry about extinct animals.

Finally, all those who love and desire that such schools and languages be established and maintained in the German lands should consider that no effort and expense be spared to provide good libraries or bookhouses, especially in the large cities that are well able to do so.

Didn't the bookhouse used to have more texts about dragons than this? […] Along with shelves of records and supplies, the room had turned out to have a shelf full of manuscripts and books about dragons. […] "Those manuscripts are worth a drake's ransom, you little fool! This room should be locked. Your father wants them kept safe. If he heard about this, I have no idea what he'd do to you, and that's before he forbade you to ever set foot in the bookhouse again." It was one of the few times he'd seen the Sage angry. That and the threat of banishment from the bookhouse had kept him out. Until now.
