There is a book in the night. Weather observations literally needed a book at night. A budding observer learns about weather processes from books. During the observations, books were also needed, for example to determine cloud or humidity characteristics. Long-term weather observations can be used to write a book. On Museum Night, you can see a selection of all the options.
