Hint 5: Okay, here's the solution. There are actually a few ways to add up these numbers to 59. Well, each button is numbered 1-10 (as you can see on the diagram just to the right of the door as you're about to exit the room). Here's a combination of buttons I used: 1, 4, 5, 9, 10. Another combination that's supposed to work is: 1, 3, 8, 9. I'm sure there are a few other sums too. Any way works. Some more examples are: 4, 7, 8, 9 and 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 10.
If you accidentally hit the wrong buttons and the power gets too high, the power will shut down. If this happens, it's a good idea to turn off all the buttons, and then go outside and find the electrical tower. Stand outside the library and turn right. There's a long walkway that goes from the library to the spaceship. Beside the walkway, by the sea, there's a tall tower. Notice that there's an electric wire that goes from the cellar, through the tower, and into the spaceship. You can climb up this tower and there's a knob you can press. Try using this knob to reset the power.
