What is the mechanics of reading a book in the East Hydlaa library?

[Siskeava]

Or any other library?

I know the book I want is on the first floor (upstairs)...  I know from the catalogue that there will be many other books on that floor that I should read in addition to the book I want to read....

But I can't find *any* books to read?  Siskeava is tall young woman... she can reach a lot of shelves....  But clicking every book?  "Mousing over" entire rows, shelves, ends of shelves....  I never find anything that will allow me to find/ select/ read a book?

How do I read a book in a library?

Thank you for your help

You right click the shelves, and some of them have an eye icon. Clicking on that eye icon reveals the contents of the shelf as well as the books inside. Right click the books to read them.

Thank you!  [I will try in my morning...  It's somewhat late in my real time and I might just fall asleep before I could enter game   ]

After you click on the "Eye" icon, the content window of the shelf has a name with the general topic (it also appears in the Info window already when right-clicking a shelf, so that the context menu appears).

So if you are looking for a book about a specific topic, you will (more or less) quickly know if you got the wrong shelf. Furthermore, each book in the shelf will reveal its title as mouse pointer tooltip.
