... every author, musician, painter who creates something needs those laws and it is only selfish people who dont want to honor those artists need for food and a warm home who dont pay for those creative additions to our lives. Sadly the industry is perverting the idea of copyright and the gaming industry is a good example with all the anti-piracy stuff of having to have an online connection to play a game you legally bought. Fight the industry and not the copyright. A "grand library" is a good idea and should be doable with Skyrims bookshelves, but every library is sorted in a catalogue. The books all belong to one or more topics and that is quite a headache to sort them. I am also annoyed in my sense for symmetry by the huge size differences of Skyrims books on those shelves ... and the fact that you cant know the size of the books while they are still in your inventory. Thus there are two questions: 1. Is there a way to categorize the books? (Dwemer, skill increases, history, nature, diaries, quest XYZ, ...) You kinda need to find the books if you really want to use them and if you dont want to use them the whole idea seems a bit too much work for nothing. 2. Has anyone thought about adjusting the sizes to a near-standard-size? (85-115% size variation instad of the current sizes) I always thought spellbooks should be kinda huge instead of those tiny leaflets.

Killing Maven via the console doesnt change anything, because Skyrim is a story-driven game and console-deaths are not taken into account. The satisfaction isnt there. Adding a quest line to either kill her organization OR make her the new Queen of the empire (or soemthing equally ridiculous) *should be* in the game ... right along with lots of other things (like Farengar NOT telling me to join the Mages College when I am the freaking Arch-Mage already ... and yadda yadda yadda). Farengar is at least useful as a vendor ... Maven is just a selfish *censored* bent on ruining the world for everyone except herself. The easiest solution to add a quest to kill Maven would be to add in the option to kill her when you have to "convince" Vald to let you into Riftweald Manor ("The Pursuit", Thieves guild quest line) ... paying Maven, retrieving her goods OR killing Maven should solve his debt problem. That would just get rid of her in the quickest way, but it isnt very elaborate and rewarding. The Thieves guild should be wary of someone with that amount of power and could actually benefit from killing her (Mavens associates are probably "off limits" to being robbed and that is bad for business). Other organizations might want to see her gone as well. Everyone who likes Honningbrew Mead over Mavens second-rate junk will want her dead!
