	This sheaf of hand-written notes was written by Dr. Laban Shrewsbury and deposited at the Miskatonic University library in 1915, shortly before his mysterious disappearance. The author implies that the research was done in an alien library in the distant star system of [[Celaeno]], one of seven stars visible from Earth as the Pleiades, a star cluster in the constellation Taurus. The [[Eltdown Shards]] and some of the newly discovered [[The Pnakotic Manuscripts\|Pnakotic Fragments]] fill in the gaps in the Celaeno Fragments, leading some scholars to believe that the three are pieces of a much older work.

	In terse, concise language, Shrewsbury describes a pantheon of unknown gods that includes the ~~“aether~~-~~beings”~~ [[Azathoth]] and [[Yog-Sothoth]], and the elementals [[Nyarlathotep]] (earth), [[Cthulhu]] (water), [[Cthugha]] (fire), and [[Ithaqua]] (air). Though such authorities as the Comte d'Erlette enthusiastically back up some of his opinions (see ''[[Cultes des Goules]]''), most scholars see the Fragments as the work of a man desperately attempting to place some order on the chaos in which he was immersed. Shrewsbury appends some notes as to the nature of the Great Library of Celaeno, and the wisdom and dangers that may be found there.

	Miskatonic University officials see these notes as something of an embarrassment, so they have never been published, nor may any but Miskatonic faculty and those approved by the head librarian consult them. The Fragments consist of a random collection of arcane scribblings and annotations covering nearly fifty sheets of paper. Some of the pages are oddly stained, the edges charred-looking and brittle, though not actually burnt in any way.
