> i feel really stupid, but i'm stuck at the beginning of the game. all i have right now is a backpack and a few rocks. i've been through the fire and i've found the dining hall, library, dumpsters, and trench, but can't get the guard to let me in. i've tried everything i can think of to get into the library to sleep. i've thrown the rocks, hid behind the dumpsters and tried to catch up to the guard, but he still won't let me in. he says, "hmmph...i didn't see you there" or something like that and "what are you doing here, the library is closed". i even tried getting caught and i still keep going in circles. can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong and how i can get the guard to let me in? thanks

Try to get into the library when he's still poking around outside, and without letting him see you. He'll always be going west and checking out the area with the dumpsters, so use that to your advantage.
