📋 About This Mod
This mod adds all texts from the "Obscure Texts" page on the Imperial Library found here: http://www.imperial-library.info/content/obscure-texts All books are placed in specific places, and are not random. For most, there is only 1 copy of the book, so dont sell them if you want to have a collection.
I was unable to include Analysis on Sermon Zero as it involved too much color coding and it just wouldnt turn out right. Sorry. If someone else is able to take up the task, help yourself
I was also unable to include the image in "The Fall of Aldruhn" because adjusting the proportions would alter the image in a way that would cut out part of the image.
Go to the "Locations.txt" for locations on all the books
Credit goes to "Abot" for helping with the "Foul Murder" image placement.
Credit goes to Michael Kirkbride for said Fourl Murder image
If you have a mod that edits any of the locations that the books are placed within, you can move them in the construction set. All books I added start with "bk_MALUS"

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Great for lore hounds who want every bit of Elder Scrolls text in-game.
- Simple concept: if you've read the Imperial Library's obscure texts, now you can find them in Skyrim.
- Small but dedicated following (57 endorsements) — it's a niche gem.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015 — may be incompatible with current Skyrim versions or mod setups.
- Only adds texts — no new quests, items, or gameplay changes, so it's purely for reading.
For lore enthusiasts who want to immerse themselves in obscure Elder Scrolls lore without alt-tabbing. If you're a completionist who loves collecting books, this is for you. Skip if you want gameplay changes — this is purely cosmetic in the sense of adding readable content.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Place the files in your Data folder or use a mod manager to install — it's a simple drop-in.
- If you're using a mod that overhauls books or adds new ones, load this mod early to avoid conflicts.
- Check the in-game bookseller inventories or use console commands to spawn the new texts if they don't appear naturally.
