When she is compelled to hire her former best friend, Christine Grimwood, who is now a drug dealer, to work as the children's librarian, her life begins to fall apart. Frances needs to do everything in her power to keep her dangerous past under control so that she may give her whole attention to Book Week, the most important event on the library's annual schedule. Early in2010, production began on a third series, which ultimately went on to debut on ABC1 that same year. The soundtrack for The Librarians is a lively variant on the popular jazz chart "A Night in Tunisia" by Dizzy Gillespie. The original song was written in 1941.
