After discovering the Library, they became predominately known as the "Bookkeepers", but were still interchangeably called "Plume Coteries". ([[PROSE]]: ''[[A Farewell to Arms (short story)|A Farewell to Arms]]'', et al.) Most Bookkeepers became closer in size to classical [[human]]s. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|A Farewell to R.M.S.

These sojourners categorised each book as either random gibberish, readable yet false and full of typos or nonsensical, or with a chance of truth and Validity, the latter of which would be taken back to civilization for evaluation. This responsibility was passed down throughout their families. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The First Noël (short story)}})

When the [[Great House]]s tried to buy RMS from Roger, the Bookkeepers stepped in to help negotiations, postponing the deal for many years due to their lack of field agents. In the interim, they used their books to learn much about the agreements the Houses were making with other powers in preparation for the [[War in Heaven]]. When the time came, the Bookkeepers traded RMS in return for the Houses' secrets of [[time scoop]]ing. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|A Farewell to R.M.S. (short story)}})
