Oghma Infinium.

Actually, the only thing that would make sense is to take a series with a lot of volumes, enough to fill a decently sized book, and combine them all into one. The 36 Lessons of Vivec probably takes the cake in that regard.

An Dance in Fire takes my vote, but I'd honestly take anything "written" by Waughin Jarth

Mmmmm, tough choices.

One story I've always been a fan of is the Dwemer tale Azura and the Box. I don't know why, but it's one of the texts that's always stuck with me. Best to take it with me, in that case.

36 Lessons is such an easy choice.

The Cap'n's Guide to the Fishy Stick, of course.

I concur with many of the shelf-worthy mentions above. Honestly, a couple of nicely bound collected volumes has been on my want list for quite some time. I'm not sure what has kept me from picking up the ESO volumes or the Skyrim Library, at least.

Dance in Fire would be the one I enjoyed most.
But, as everyone undoubtedly knew, most or some of this stuff is already released as physical hardcover books.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - The Skyrim Library vol. 1 - 3 (Titan Books).

Or is this only the things that went into Skyrim but are not in ES 1-4 ?
In which case we do need Arena Library, Daggerfall library, Morrowind Library and Oblivion Library.
