Xali’s Enchanted Books 9minecraft Resource Pack replaces the single shared texture that every enchanted book uses with a unique, hand-drawn cover for each enchantment, so one look at the item tells you exactly what is inside the book.

Xali's Enchanted Books resource pack gives every enchanted book its own unique cover art so you can tell your enchantments apart at a glance

In vanilla Minecraft every enchanted book looks identical, which means sorting a chest full of loot or picking the right book at the enchanting table always comes down to reading tooltips one by one. This pack fixes that by drawing a distinct cover for all 42 enchantments and, on top of that, a separate design for each individual level: Sharpness I through V, Protection I through IV, Efficiency I through V and so on. That works out to 125 different book covers built from 151 textures, including the treasure enchantments and both curses.

The artwork is themed to what the enchantment actually does. Fire Aspect and Flame get flame motifs, Frost Walker and Depth Strider get icy and watery covers, Silk Touch and Fortune get their own mining marks, and the two curses get a darker, more sinister look so you can spot them instantly.

It is a pure vanilla resource pack. There is nothing to install besides the pack itself, no mods or loaders are required, and it makes no gameplay changes at all.

Features:

  • A unique cover for every one of the 42 vanilla enchantments.
  • Separate artwork per enchantment level, for 125 distinct book designs in total.
  • Includes treasure enchantments plus the Curse of Binding and Curse of Vanishing.
  • Designs match what the enchantment does, so books are easy to recognise.
  • Tell books apart in chests, inventories, hoppers and item frames without reading tooltips.
  • Works in the inventory, in your hand, in item frames and in every container GUI.
  • Vanilla-friendly and lightweight: textures only, no mods needed, no gameplay changes.

How to Use:

  • Download the pack .zip file below.
  • Drop the .zip into your .minecraft/resourcepacks folder.
  • In game, open Options → Resource Packs and move the pack to the active list.
  • Click Done. Every enchanted book now shows its own cover art straight away.
