11/19A Bibliophile's Guide to the Books of Norrath

We are pleased to help introduce A Bibliophile's Guide to the Books of Norrath, a book cataloging project by our friend Aurelis.  It's been a lot of fun watching her scour ZAM in her mission to catalog every single house item book available in modern Norrath!  

Thus far she's cataloged:

  • 428 books that are 100% verified to be attainable (this includes books that can no longer be gotten through normal methods, such as event-specific books, but were at one time available)
  • 2 books that have been discovered on some servers but have not been 100onfirmed.  While I count these books, some of you may not.  They have been marked accordingly in the list.
  • 20 books that have not been discovered, appear to have been removed very early in the game, or just plain don't seem to exist beyond a link in the EQ2 database.
  • 1 book that was once a house item and is kept on the list in memoriam of its untimely demise.

Aurelis is taking comments and contributions on this thread on the official forums.
