Arc Raiders Build Library Quest Guide

One of the last missions you will receive Arclight Guide'The first batch of launch tasks is called “Building the Library”. This quest requires you to find and retrieve three books from the library of the Buried City, and bring them back to Apollo in Speranza. Since these books are in high traffic areas, you'll want to know where to find them so you can get in and out quickly before things get difficult.

It's important to note that you need to extract all three books in one raid to complete Build a Library. With this in mind, it's in your best interest to be equipped with a shield, weapon, and plenty of ammo to ensure you're prepared for any battles that may occur while entering or exiting the library.

All three Building a Library books can be found here.

Where to find books about building a library

The three books you need to find are located in the Library POI on the Buried City map. You can find this location above Marano Park in the northern part of the map.

Marano Park and all the areas surrounding it are some of the most heavily trafficked areas of any map in Arc Raiders, so it's important to be on high alert and ready for a fight when entering the library. Asking other players to be friendly will usually succeed if you're playing alone, as they have as much to lose as you do, but if you're doing this with a group, expect to encounter more resistance.

Start on the lower level of the library and look for a small book cart in front of some of the higher bookshelves. Interact with it and it will drop first book. Make sure to pick it up off the ground to add it to your inventory.

After picking up the first book, go up the stairs to the second floor. you will find second book On another small book cart against the back wall.

Finally, walk past the second book cart, go around a bit to the left, and ride book three From a book cart next to some fallen bookshelves.

Once you have obtained all the books, you will need to extract them into your inventory to complete Build a Library. The good news, though, is that you're right next to the extraction point. Walking out in front of the library leads directly to the subway entrance to the North Station train. Keep an eye out for ARC Pods and Fireballs (and other raiders) roaming the subway station, then extract the book and bring it back to Apollo to complete the mission.
