Arc Raiders Building A Library Quest Guide

One of the final quests you’ll encounter in ARC Raiders’ first set of launch missions is called Building a Library. This task sends you to the Buried City where you must locate and retrieve three books from the library before returning them safely to Apollo in Speranza. Since this objective takes place in a busy point of interest, knowing the exact locations of the books will help you complete the quest quickly and avoid unnecessary fights with other raiders.

Keep in mind that all three books must be extracted in a single raid for the quest to count as completed. Because of this requirement, it’s best to prepare properly before entering the area. Bring a reliable weapon, a sturdy shield, and enough ammunition to handle potential encounters with enemies or other players while you move through the library and make your escape.

Below is where you can find all three books required for the Building a Library quest.

Where to find the books for Building a Library

The three books needed for this quest are located inside the Library point of interest on the Buried City map. This location can be found just above Marano Park, which sits in the northern section of the map.

Marano Park and the surrounding locations are considered some of the busiest areas in ARC Raiders. Because of this, you should stay alert and ready for combat while entering or leaving the library. Solo players sometimes manage to negotiate temporary peace with other raiders who are attempting the same objective, but this doesn’t always work. If you’re playing in a squad, expect other players to be far less cooperative and more likely to engage in combat.

Begin your search on the ground floor of the library. Look around for a small book cart positioned near several taller bookshelves. Interact with the cart and the first book will drop onto the floor. Be sure to pick it up afterward so it is added to your inventory.

Once you have collected the first book, head up the stairs to reach the second floor of the building. On this level, you’ll find the second book resting on another small book cart placed against the back wall of the room.

After grabbing the second book, continue walking past the cart and move slightly to the left side of the area. The third and final book can be found on yet another cart positioned beside a set of fallen shelves.

After securing all three books, the last step is to successfully extract while keeping them in your inventory. Fortunately, the library is located very close to an extraction point. Exit the front entrance of the library and you’ll immediately see the metro entrance leading to the Northern Station train. While heading there, watch out for roaming ARC Pods and Fireballs that can appear inside the metro station. Other raiders may also be trying to extract at the same time, so proceed carefully.

Once you’ve successfully extracted, return the books to Apollo in Speranza to finish the quest. If you’re looking for more helpful guides, tips, and walkthroughs, be sure to check out the full ARC Raiders quest list here at Gamer Choice.
