So asks Tokyo's most enigmatic librarian, Sayuri Komachi.
But she is no ordinary librarian.

- The mother faced with a demotion at work after maternity leave
- The conscientious accountant who yearns to open an antique store
- The gifted young manga artist in search of motivation
- The recently retired salaryman on a quest for newfound purpose
Can she help them find what they are looking for?
