  very once in a while adventurers stumble across the 
  study of an archmage, a long-lost library, a university, 
  or even just a wizard’s bedchamber.  What book 
  does a wizard have in his bedside table?  What’s on the 
  shelves of the archmage’s secret 
  study?  Which book is being talked 
  about in the streets and taverns of 
  the wealthy district?
  Traditionally fantasy roleplaying 
  games have included spellbooks and 
  scrolls in treasure hoards.  Sometimes 
  a plot-important diary or journal may be 
  featured, containing a vital clue or letter 
  for the adventure.  But what of all the other 
  books, the ones that do not contain spells and 
  aren’t critical storywise? 
  You can use this article to generate a library 
  of magical and non-magical books and tomes 
  suitable for use in any fantasy roleplaying 
  game. Until you’ve read Nori the Dark’s 
  Resplendent Creed of Volatile Illusion, Dolin the 
  Accursed’s Dangerous Guide of Unknown Magics, 
  and Bili the Umbral’s Telestic Manual of Demented 
  Divinity, you haven’t lived! That’s not to mention 
  The Fine Handbook Of Divination and Husbandry, The 
  Lexicon Of Illuminated Alchemy By Finor The Infernal, 
  and the critically panned Transformation and Gambling: 
  A Tome By Nofur The Numinous.
  Simply roll 1d100.  Each entry contains the book’s name, 
  its author, a short description, and an optional notation 
  indicating its rarity, relative value, and number of pages.
