Just to clarify a previous post - apparently I had not done the quest that gives Irgnar’s and Gamwyn’s journal - I found it on accident tonight years after I thought I cleared the zone. So I cannot verify if those books are bugged post quest.

They disappear post-quest, so anyone not reading them during the quest won't be able to. There are a few books like that.

Relating to Ashbound Hall and

All Books Requiring Access to Ashbound Hall - No access to location post-quest:
Panicked Note
Hastily Written Observation
Cannot remember them all off the top of my head but will add when the wikis update their info to show location

Did the quest Lost Among the Ashes. As an overview: in total there are 11 entries for Eidetic Memory to find.
5 of them quest related (with quest icon) - 2 outside Ashbound Hall at start, 3 inside.

- Terinvel's Notebook - outside
- An Offer of Protection - outside
- A Trick to the Doors
- Hurriedly Written Note
- Terinvel's Lost Note

6 without quest icon:

- Dirty Abandoned Journal --> first room of Ashbound Hall; the only one accessible post quest
- Rotting Journal
- Hastily Written Observations
- Note About Paths
- Misplaced Journal
- Panicked Note

Except Dirty Abandoned Journal all these books are not reachable post quest. Either they are quest related or their location is behind the first door inside Ashbound Hall, which is closed after quest and not interactable.
No post quest locations found so far.

Thanks for that. I'll add the non-quest ones in.

@ZOS_Kevin @ZOS_GinaBruno - This list is starting to get out of hand, especially whatever led to the decision to lock 5 books behind a quest (Ashbound Hall). Please provide some feedback to show this is on the Dev's radar?!

Yes please. In Ashbound Hall i was wondering, if it is intended that the first door (inside) isn't interactible. Would be easy to backtrack then, at least for these 5 books.

Besides this for example it would be nice to know, that/if/when quest related books are possible content of bookshelves.
Found 3 of those in there (Gristmung Hold) these days, before i have done that quests.

The First Dialogue of Mannimarco and Galerion - before freeing Galerion (later in The Deep Tombs of Xul-Haj)
Sahmazim's Vos-Toh Translations - before passed To Know the Void
and especially The Guardians of Mor Naril - which is not only quest related to The Gates of Mor Naril (also later in that story line), it's a quest objective there.

It would be helpfull to know, when all books are part of the loot table of bookshelves, at least in the related map.
Imho it's not so bad, if it would be like that always.
