Here is a tip how i do merge with tes5edit. 1.) Load all .esp you want to merge 2.) Right click Apply Filter for Cleaning 3.) ONLY use "Undelete and Disable References" 4.) If there is problem with static, weapon, armor, books ect, you can DELETE that item(s) but only IF that item don't have script attached to it, (in your case books, so you can delete them, but write NAME of that item it will be needed later) 5.) Use "Apply Script" and then MERGE esp(s) 6.) If there is no Errors close and backup your merge file. Now if you now how to use Creation kit you can find these items in LEFT box under FILTER name, if you dont know how to use CK then do this: 1.) Once CK is open load your esp file, with click on box until it is crossed, with click on "Set as Active File" 2.) In left panel under Filter scroll all the way down and find ALL. 3.) In Filter box use name of item you delete in tes5edit 4.) Once found item(s) just copy that item(s) in say Dragonsreach on table or in your house somewhere so you can pick up in game 5.) Save ESP and Exit CK. 6.) Load game and find item(s) in CELL that you deleted in tes5edit and then where you copy item(s) in CK. 7.) This works for me just fine all the time i merge esm/esp files. So it should work for you as well if not well something is wrong with esm/esp, or there is script that is attached to that item(s). if you know how to use CK, there is script box that you should find so to see if that item(s) are script attached. if script is attached than you need to play with script and see if you can find how to solve prob
