The leader is a Kadoe with delusions of starting his own empire. Beyond that >>280430986 is right in pointing out that the goals of individual members may not align with that. Lord Bellir seems to be trying to take over the library through Cynthia for example, but the plans to destabilize the library would undermine that if they executed in a timely fashion.

>could any of the other masks be characters we've already seen?
I've been pushing Professor Edan since after chapter 18. It's been established that the masks didn't know about the connection between Sedona and Theo for years so I think they figured it out because of a slip-up on Theo's part. Namely looking for topics related to the book while in the library.

This page is the one where Edan gets to see what section Theo was in, and despite knowing now that Kiraha is also a spy, I doubt she herself was set to really monitor Theo by this point. I think Edan saw what Theo was looking up and got curious leading to someone mining records from either the Liason or Personnel offices to see if anything interesting surrounded Theo. Leading to an assignment for Sedona 7 years ago to a small village in the boonies.
