"It is a matter of elimination," Inric says. "There are catalogues for the books in each room. If a book is missing, and Copper cannot locate it within the library, then it must have travelled."
"And Copper can track it to a different world?"
"Yes."
"Can all the bookwyrms do that?"
"Only with training."
"So it isn't just about stopping them eating the books?"
"That is the first concern," Inric says, straight-faced as always. "But no, it is not the only thing they need to learn."
