Rewards: Avian-Grey wand handle and 180 experience (XP).

Proceed to the library, the door to which is located just a few steps to the left of her location. As soon as you walk through the door, the majestic library awaits you. Books will fly around in this area, and your in-game avatar hints at using Accio to collect them. They will scatter on your arrival. One book will be on the left side of the area, and you can cast Accio to pull it towards you.

Use Revelio to spot the rest. One book will be on your right side beside the large bookshelf. The last book on this floor will be to your left. Feel free to recast Revelio spell to spot it. It will be highlighted in blue, and you can walk closer and use Accio to obtain it.

Now head to the library's second floor via the stairs at the end of the room. Upon your arrival on this floor, you will find two flying books. The one on the left is Cressida’s missing book. The fluttering book on the right is a field guide page. Make sure to grab it as well using Accio. Collecting field guide pages will help you level up quickly in Hogwarts Legacy.

To acquire the final book, head to the opposite side of the floor and cast Revelio to highlight it. The book can fly around the aisle on the second to last bookshelf. Once again, resort to Accio to grab this final book for Cressida.

Return to her and hand over the books. Completing the quest earns you 180 XP and an Avian-Grey wand handle. This concludes the Flying off the shelves side mission.

The world of Hogwarts Legacy is ripe for exploration. Players can cruise around the vast open world on a flying broom or mount a magical beast to traverse faster. One can even tame some creatures and tend to them in the Vivarium. Hogwarts Legacy features a personal space called Room of Requirement, where players can brew potions, grow various herbs, and much more.

Avalanche Software was under the eagle eye of expectations from Potterheads and RPG aficionados. Positive reviews of Hogwarts Legacy and a favorable user reception paint a good picture for their team. It will be interesting to see how robust the narrative experience is owing to the absence of fan-favorite characters.
