Hey kids! Please take a minute or two to read this. It is important!!!
The game is loading, meaning
that as you read this, the graphics for the game which you are about to
play are being loaded into your browser's cache. Having done this, when you get into the game itself, you will have a more seamless and interactive experience.
The game is both Netscape and Internet Explorer friendly,
basic html and uses scripting as often as possible. It is adviseable
to let this page load fully before playing as it is a somewhat graphic
intense game, (as they should be!).
About the Game 
"The Alien Librarian" is about an extraterrestial
encounter between the National Library's bookworm, BiblioPhil, and a sinister little alien who has a job for BiblioPhil to do and grim consequences if he doesn't complete the
task!
About the Designer 
This is the
third website that Adam Van Dyke has worked on for the National Library
of Canada. He has used the skills he acquired at the world-renowned Sheridan
College animation program to bring something different and previously
unseen to the "Read Up On It" digital projects .
