Just after you enter the building it will turn out that something isn't right here. One of the caretakers will ask for your help. You need a caretaker veil, so if you want to you can kill this guy, but you can also get one from the one already dead (1). Put on the veil and you'll be able to interact with the panels around here (O). They contain puzzles, answers to which can be found in the books scattered around the archives. When you gather them all, you don't have to read them - just take your best shot answering, and if you fail, you'll be given another chance. The questions are randomly chosen, so each time you'll have different one upon you.
HINT: Spots on the map indicated with (*) are secret rooms that can only be accessed with the veil on. There are some decent items in there, so don't miss them.
When you solve the puzzle, the central room will be open. You'll encounter a Githyanki mage in there, the very same that killed Amie in West Harbor. He'll run away and leave you to kill his warriors. Defeat them all and check out the open book in the middle. It'll turn out that the person you're looking for is Shandra, the cynical Highcliff farmer you've met a long time ago. Pay a visit to her farm.
