Greetings again, nameless one.

The vessel-station does not provide directions nor instructions, and is of the opinion that the archive within its system achieves proper organization despite and because of this fact. However, with the help of some previous Archivists, we have been able to tailor this small set for your assistance.

• Each Archivist has prepared and filled out at least one note-taking or record-keeping document of some kind, which usually enters the archive itself.
• Music and background media are not provided in advance, as we also must recognize the individuality of the listening experience (and there are no doubt items with audio to process), but are encouraged in moderation in lieu of regular human contact. The network should have some available, if you do not or can not procure your own in advance.
• There is no-one else aboard the vessel-station (only one Archivist is employed at any given time, until a successor is found), but there ought be enough provision and space to maintain your body.

If any emergencies arise during your tenure, please do not hesitate to contact us.
