Keeper of the Chronicles
From A Wheel of Time Wiki
The Keeper of the Chronicles is an Aes Sedai position and is second to the Amyrlin Seat. She is usually raised from the same Ajah as the Amyrlin and remains a member of it, whereas the Amyrlin does not.
[edit] Duties
The Keeper is responsible for maintaining the records of the White Tower library, including secret files such as the Thirteenth Depository. In many ways she acts as an aide-de-camp to the Amyrlin. She parses through the thousands of files that come from below her and relays the important ones to the Amyrlin.
