LIBRARIANS THIS IS IT. This is not a small tweak. This is not just another patch.

THIS. IS. A. MAJOR. UPDATE.

The THE LATE RETURNING DAMAGED BOOKS AND LIBRARY CARDS MAJOR UPDATE is here!!! And it completely changes how your Library feels, how it works, and how much it demands from you as a Librarian.

Visitors are no longer just visitors. Books are no longer just books. And your decisions? They MATTER.

Every visitor now has a face, a name, and a story. They register. They come back. They remember what they like and what they dont. Sometimes theyll even ask for your help. Your Library is officially full of real people, not just NPCs passing by.

Books now live real lives. They get borrowed. They have due dates. They can come back late. They can come back damaged. And if youre not paying attention? Your entire Library will feel the consequences.

Yes! Books can break now. Inspect returns. Spot damage. Send books to repair. Ignore them, and your progression slows down. Being a Librarian just became a LOT more serious.

Want control? Youve got it. Order books after hours. Pick exact titles, authors, or genres. Manage limited order slots. Order duplicates if you want. This is the first time your collection truly reflects your choices.

Clients can now request specific books. Dont have it? No problem! Create a request, track it, and call them back when it arrives. The Library now remembers promises and expects you to keep them.

And thats not all

From a brand-new Book Return flow to labeled pallets showing exactly where books came from, this update is packed with system upgrades, management depth, and immersion improvements across the entire Library.

(there\'s so much to write that my hand hurts from doing so much )

This isnt just more content. This is Libritopia leveling up. This is the Librarian experience getting deeper, smarter, and more alive than ever.

Welcome to THE LATE RETURNING DAMAGED BOOKS AND LIBRARY CARDS MAJOR UPDATE! (yeah! that\'s correct, that\'s the name of the update.)

Your Library will never be the same again.

Let\'s read the full changelog for more details on this incredible update to close out the year in style

Major Changes

Librarians, get ready for a special community moment!

The Donation Day Update has arrived, bringing a brand-new event that transforms how your Library handles books that deserve a second life!

On Donation Day, your Library closes its doors to prepare for something meaningful. Set up new donation stands in the parking lot, place your selected books, and get ready as visitors line up outside, eager to browse and find their next favorite read!

During the event, each visitor will tell you what genres they enjoy (and which ones they avoid!). Use the new Indicate Shelf action to guide them to the perfect spot. Once a book is taken, its gone for good. It leaves your shelves to start a new chapter somewhere else. Every story finds a new home.

But thats not all

Weve added a glass entrance door that stays locked during Donation Day for full immersion, plus a new keybind for the Indicate Shelf action to keep things fast and intuitive.

We also worked on stability and controls:
