Text

This library was closed in 1935, following the construction of the various university campuses. It was acquired by Ms. Hazel Iversen in 1946. In 1960, Ms. Iversen ceded it to members of the Gemini League, a resistance group fighting against English oppression, from the cities of Hartford and New Haven. Since then, the Hartford Chantry has moved in. Discreetly at first, during the reign of Quentin King, and then openly since our Prince, Mrs. Iversen, took the throne. The transfer of ownership was made official in 2014. This gift is a strong signal sent to the Warlocks by our Prince. This place fulfills the rules imposed by its new owners and is an extenstion of the Hartford Chantry's domain. Our Prince does not have jurisdiction there, in the interest of cordial and diplomatic relations. Any Kindred who enter the premises uninvited will be subject to the laws of the Hartford Chantry. The Prince has informed the Court of the risks involved in going to the Jefferson Library without approval, even though relations with the Hartford Chantry are excellent.
