As with previous Elder Scrolls games, Oblivion is filled with books. Most books just fill in back story or provide lore material, but a few books will add markers to your map or give you training in a skill. It isn't necessary that you (the player) read the full text of these special books. You will receive the benefit of them as soon as you open them.

There are two other types of reading material in the game:

  1. The Black Horse Courier, a newspaper.
  2. Random notes and letters.

[edit] Skill Books

The first time you read a given Skill Book, your level in the associated Skill will be permanently increased by one point. If a major skill is increased, it will count towards leveling up; the skill increase will also contribute to the skill bonuses you receive next time you level up. Unlike Trainers, there is no limit to how many Skill Books you can read at one level (other than how many you are able to find).

You can open a Skill Book, read it, and acquire the skill bonus without it being considered theft. Theft only occurs if while reading it you select to "Take" the book. If you just close the book (putting it back where you found it) no crime is committed.

If you find a second copy of a Skill Book that you have already read, you will not receive any skill bonus for reading the second copy.

When you have reached Mastery in a skill (100 points), reading a unread skill book will not produce any effect: it will not increase your skill above 100 points; it will not increase the Skill Books Read counter in your character statistics either, and you will not even be alerted of the skill book discovery.

A potential way to maximize skill books bonuses is to delay reading books located

  • in containers -- since you can transfer them in your inventory without reading them
  • outside containers, in a permanent, non-hostile, easily accessible location (such as a Mages Guild bookshelf or the Arcane University)

until you have reached Expert status (75 to 99 points) in the relevant skill, since one extra skill point is much harder to gain when you're an Expert than when you're still a Novice. However, this advice does not work for skill books found outside containers during quests, as it is not possible to take them without opening, thus reading them first.

Twenty of the skill books (one in each skill, except for Speechcraft) are primarily found in random loot. This means that there is a small chance that one of these twenty books will appear in any boss-level chest in any dungeon, or in a variety of other chests with random contents. There are also two quests on which you will receive a random skill book as your reward:

  • Bear Season: one of six combat skill books (except for Armorer).
  • Two Sides of the Coin: one of seven stealth books, plus one of the thirteen other random skill books.

Remember that floors are given using the American style; thus "first floor" in the list means "ground floor" if you're British.
