Kings Quest II Trouble

[Bluke4x4]

In King's Quest 2, I've had some earrings stolen by a dwarf. I found Possum's basket and gave it to her, then talked to the cave and died, and now I can't find the basket. My inventory is the pearl, the net, the sword, the picket fence thing, the mallet, and the bird. How do I become a member at the library? What do I have to do? Please help.

The location of the basket is random (can be in 3 or 4 different rooms). Look around and you'll come across it eventually. Don't worry about the earrings. I'm not sure if you'll be able to retrieve them later (I think you can), but you will be able to finish the game regardless.

As for the library, didn't the librarian say that the old man next door was a member?

I've gotten past that part now, but now I don't know what to do! I read that book that the librarian gave me.
