==Mechanics==
Lore books are found in most areas of the game and describe that area, or add flavor text about it. First encounters with most types of monsters trigger a lore book as well, which can be listened to by clicking the icon on the lower right of the screen.
In-world lore books are only found if a particular character has not before "read" that particular book. Many areas of the game have multiple books, which are labeled with the number after the title, such as "The Fall of the Barbarians: Part One," a five book series found in the Keep in Act 3.

Vasadan clarified the mechanics of lore books while grouped during the Diablo III [[beta]][http://blues.incgamers.com/Posts/10/1/46/858/158443/39leah-book39#postId_425851]:
==CollectorAchievements== Achievements are awarded for reading all the Lore books in a particular area, and/or for listening to all of the NPC conversations. These can often overlap; there are many installments to read in Leah's Guide==Journal through Acts 1-3, and these journal entries flesh out the ongoing story and supplement the actual conversations with Leah and the other NPCs.
