Skill books | Listings TES V: Skyrim Guide

Last update: 05 December 2019

This page of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim World Atlas includes the list of skill books. You will learn why they are important to develop your character. We have prepared a list of locations of the skill books. This should greatly facilitate finding them.

Basic information

There are a lot of skill books hidden in Skyrim, however each book raises only one skill and only by one point - Skill books | Listings - Listings - The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Game Guide

There are a lot of skill books hidden in Skyrim, however each book raises only one skill and only by one point. The game will of course inform you about which skill has been increased and it will also count towards progress to the next experience level. Each skill book can increase your skill only once, so once the process is finished it becomes useless to you. It's possible to sell the books, but this is a good idea only at the beginning of the game, because the books weigh a lot and you won't receive tons of gold for them from the merchants.

List of skill books

Important - In order to understand what the numbers from the third and fourth column mean you must consult the World Maps chapter of this guide. Here's an example: [sector 5, number 36] means that you must look at the map of sector 5 and find a location marked with 36. The books have been placed in an alphabetical order of the skill categories and location names.
