For the Bookseller NPC class, see Bookseller (class).
Booksellers are merchants that exclusively sell books and some other paper related material, some even enchanted. The books may have a variety of purposes, ranging from simply inspiring or amusing the reader, to teaching valuable skills, either stat wise or practical advice for novice players. Some books are even crucial to certain quests. Like libraries, booksellers allow visitors to browse around and read their books, oddly actually taking one into your inventory counts as theft.
Unlike libraries, however, you can legally acquire the books by purchasing them from a bookseller. Furthermore, booksellers will also buy other books, notes and even magical scrolls. Lastly, while most libraries are purely educational in nature, booksellers often carry ruder or less appropriate works. These may include swashbuckling tales of adventure as well as volumes of verse and song, which can be more than slightly bawdy.
The most famous of the bookstores is in Vivec's Foreign Quarter: Jobasha's Rare Books. Other sizeable towns maintain some sort of bookshop, perhaps a merchant or two with a few common volumes, but no other shop has quite the selection Jobasha can boast.
