Mages Guild: Clicking Lore Books Doesn't Result in Any Progress

Hi

I joined the Mages Guild, and have been clicking on the glowing Lore books I encounter in the game. When I do so, the glow disappears, but nothing else happens - no message about any kind of progression, or acknowledgment that I've done anything.

Today, I decided to confirm this buy checking the guild level progression bar in my Skills window. As I suspected, clicking on the book did in fact have no effect: the bar was a level 1, 10/70 before clicking the book, and the same afterwards.

Is this a bug, or is there something I don't understand about this game mechanic?

Do I need to attain a certain character level before the Mages Guild level will respond to Lore Books? I'm currently level 9.

And is there any way to check a record of which Lore Books the game thinks I've collected?

Thanks ...

    Were these books with a Blue glow or a White glow? The former are for Mages, the latter are for, well, the heck of it, and show up in the Eidectic Memory

    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    I eventually figured that at least one of them was from the Eidetic Memory set, not Shalidor's Library (the books for Mage's Guild rep). I suspect the others were too.

    I was able to later get the correct response from a book in the Shalidor's Library set, so I guess I'm OK!
