Okrand gave us *De' QulwI'* and *paq nojwI'* as /librarian,/ *paq nojwI' qach* as /library (building)/, and *paq nojwI' tum* as /library (public)./ That's all we know. I suppose *De' QulwI'* fits your request. I guess that a library that is a collection of books but is not public or a lending library building would be called *paqmey.* A room devoted to such a collection would probably be called *paqmey pa'.* But Okrand didn't give us those terms. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name

If the librarian does not lend the books, what does he or she do? Perhaps {'avwI'} might be a suitable job title. :-P You really should become more familiar with the New Words List. Answers to a lot of your recent questions can be found there. http://www.kli.org/about-klingon/new-klingon-words/ -- ghunchu'wI'

i.e. "book lender" De' QulwI' librarian (qepHom 2016) i.e. "data/information researcher" This may be more of a reference librarian or, like me, a cataloger, who deals with creating and maintaining online bibliographic records as opposed to someone who checks out the actual {paqmey} to patrons.
