It seems the powers that be have quite the esoteric sense of humour. I arrive to take up my new duties and a large portion of the student body has been rendered incapable of reading anything more challenging than the most simplified versions of "Babbity Rabbity and her Cackling Stump".
In any case, greetings, Hogwarts. My name is Ezra Fell. Headmaster Dumbledore has requested I take up the mantle as Librarian of this school, as apparently my predecessor was found lacking in some way. Some of you may be familiar with the bookshop I run in Soho down in London; it's a popular location for youngsters to duck into to try to pluck up the courage to try to sneak into some of the more... illicit establishments in the area.
[VOICE]
Er, I might as well speak this part as some of the potentially interested parties may not be able to read at this juncture. If any of the small children would like to see a presentation of Muggle sleight-of-hand "magic", I am something of an enthusiast and would be pleased to put on a show.

I've always been fascinated by books, well before I entered Hogwarts. I'm rather proud to say that my family has long possessed one of the largest personal collections of magical and esoteric books in Britain, and now that it is in my care, I've only added to it.

Wow. I'd really like to see that someday. I mean if that'd be possible.

That said, my shop is open to the public, and I keep many additional copies of books I already own there. As well as some of the ones that are so enchanted as to not get on very well with others. Solitary confinement, as it were.
If you visit the shop, I promise to be cordial as long as you don't attempt anything foolish like trying to purchase one.
