"The Books" are the 'Ancient Tomes' the Drowned Students are skirmishing with.
[npc=89834] mobs can be found in circed hall, they agressive, but seems they disoriented, becasue students shoot missles to them, so books ignore you untill any direct damage cаme from you.

Description
<The librarian speaks in shushed tones.> One problem with maintaining such a large arcane library is that the books often pick up an errant enchantment and start darting about on their own. These overmagicked books need to be destroyed before they cause any further damage. If you encounter any of these exasperating essays, please put them down. Quietly.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Dressing With Class
Now stop right there. Look at you! You look like you just walked in off of the street. Where are your robes and hat? And don't tell me you've entered the academy without your wand and spellbook. Freshmen. Put yourself together, and maybe then I will consider letting you enter the academy.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Haunted Halls
Now, what was it you wanted? You're here to see the Tidestone of Golganneth? Hah! Ho ho ha ha haa! Hooo my. No, only the academy's headmistress has the keys to that chamber, and she hasn't opened the door in... oh, I'd say about ten thousand years. You'd best be off to class, now. Go on, then!
