Thoughts so far:
Alexandria and Pergamum are both ancient libraries.
UCL (University College London) is next to the British Library
Fiction is sorted by Authors Surname
Non fiction is sorted by subject
The man in every library is Melvil Dewey
Lots of libraries have busts/ statues
Has anyone got a more appropriate acronym for UCL?
this is as far as i got with the password, well done password people

No prob.
BTW, Is anyone else in communication with Penelope?
I have now received a reply from her email basically stating she isn't going to tell me anything.
I'm not sure how to progress the conversation.

Yeah, in the first email she asked what card I hold and in the second she just said that she is keeping all the info in her blog where everything is password protected and currently unpublished and will be released piece by piece. So I don't really get why we had to contact her via email in the first place.
Oh, and great job with the password everyone who did solve that on their own. I was thinking that the man in the library could have been Aiden (the Keeper of the fire). I asked Penelope that, but haven't got an answer. I actually sent an email to Aiden too.

Beaut job on that last PW Natas!! The latest PW there is titled "English Egyptologist" and there's a new 'key links' page which might also help.
Pergamum Project PW with a hint in Newsletter #3
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
PW is "birch" (The British Museum gives his accomplishments better justice than Wikipedia)
ETA: Elethamei & HappyPhantom (leaving her tweets for her to post) are spot-on about a FiremanAiden connex b/c Aiden's twitter as well as Aiden's blog are active

Both Penelope and Aiden answered to me, but they didn't really tell anything.
Penelope wrote:
Eletha,
I'm really glad you asked me that. For now let me just say that the man does not want to be identified (yet). However, I will ask you this, do you know the other Elementals?
I will have more info for you soon. Keep in mind that the Death card will play an important role very soon.
P.P.

Eletha,
Thank you for contacting me. It's always good to hear from a fellow Keeper. All I will say is this: the less you know about what I know, the safe we will all be. However, I can assure you that things are unfolding rapidly, and soon you will have no trouble finding your way.
Aiden

Amandel, I can't send you any more PMs. Could your inbox be full, or is the PM-function just acting up per usual?
Anywho, this was what I was trying to say:
Ok, so the cards Penelope got her hands on was from the Visconti-Sforza deck, commissioned by the dukes of Milan around 1450 - which happens to be the exact time and place young lady Cicilia from Tarot History & Practice (http://tarothistoryandpractice.blogspot.se ) was rushed off to Venice after someone burned her fathers library in search of a particular book.
You have a good read on this game. Is it a coincidence?
(Edit: I'm technically not opposed to others answering )

No worries, njberry. Am coming off major dental work meds or I'd be Ms. Still hungry for a kloo on that latest PW 'tho. Maybe it's related to us cardkeepers?

So, because my card design was the first one to be submitted, Winter sent me the password
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
it's 0877282684. I looked it up on Google and it's the ISBN of Book of Thoth.
Also, Aiden sent another message saying that he doesn't know where Penelope is now.
