A library is a public reading hall full of shelves. Survivors come here for skill books on First Aid, Agriculture, Foraging and Animal Care.
The public library shelves hold every volume of those four skills. A university library carries the higher First Aid volumes and rare advanced books for many trades. A police library is a records room with film, paperwork and photographs. Skill books speed up learning when read before practice. A library is a strong stop for a survivor planning to farm, forage or heal.
Possible Loot Items in a Library
The public library shelves are the main prize. First Aid I: "A Scouts Injury Guide" turns up often. First Aid II: "Bandaging and Suturing" is also common. Agriculture I, Foraging I and Animal Care I sit on the shelves now and then. Their second and third volumes appear now and then too. First Aid IV: "Gray's Anatomy of the Human Body" is less common. The fourth volumes of the other skills are rare. First Aid V: "Surgical Techniques of the Operating Room" is a rare find. The shelves also give an RPG Manual. The counter often holds an Index Card and now and then a Calculator.
The university library shelves are the best place for higher First Aid books. First Aid III: "Emergency Paramedics Manual" turns up often there. A Leatherbound Book is common. First Aid IV and Pottery III: "Glazing Ceramics at Home" appear now and then. First Aid V is rarer but more common than in a public library. Third volumes of Aiming, Reloading, Blacksmithing and Carpentry are rare finds. Cooking, Electrical, Fishing and Foraging third volumes are rare too.
The police library almost always holds Camera Film and Paperwork. A Photograph turns up now and then. An ID Card and a Stock Certificate are rare.
The likeliest finds in each room of a library, with the container they sit in and the rough chance per container. Cleaning supplies, keys and towels turn up everywhere and are left off the lists.
