The S.I.T. Library faculty book

[PKPenguin]

The S.I.T. Library has a book that claims to have entries for all current and past faculty. WoL had a similar book that opened the door to all kinds of easter eggs and puzzles, but I can't seem to get even one hit on a name in this book... Does anyone have any leads?

Right by the library you can see portraits that name Technology and Wormwood (the book searches by last name).
Wormwood's entry gives a date, which when cross-referenced provides four more names, one of which has another name, which in turn leads to a date, which gives you 3 pretty good combat items.
Also the Chemistry course uses it to provide a hint to what to do next.

Apart from that I haven't found anything. The names in the infinite hallway have an easter egg response, and I randomly typed 'James' and found an entry for it. So clearly there's a good amount in there. No clue how to access it though.

So look up all the names and cross-reference any dates with the Watchful Eye and you can eventually get an alternate dialogue path with the Dean in the stacks where he reveals that he's been protecting the school and lets you go and grab the book you need without fighting/banishing him. He also gives you a scroll which can be used in the endgame, on the giant archway.

I've killed the Dean so many times, finding out he's essentially the equivalent of a "shadow tainted level 3 but still actually a good guy" MC has been something of a shock to me

"Are we the Baddiez" indeed :/

I suspected as much, given the dream after that, but haven't been able to figure out the steps to unlock that. Besides looking up Wormwood, Gregory, Jeffy, Howe, and Milkwood, and checking the WE, what am I missing?

Make sure you've seen both the 1788 and 1808 entries, maybe? Not sure if you need the 1784 edition, but I believe you get it by looking up Fchmidt in the faculty list.

You might need to ask who he is in the stacks first. Once you know he's Dean Wormwood, you want the option to ask about Jeffy, and then you take *that* Brag/Bewitch/Bamboozle option. Not sure if there's another step or a specific order I'm not mentioning.

Finally got it. I think maybe I was going in to face him before I had checked the WE archives. Doh!
