Dead Money
In the DLC pack Dead Money contains one of each of the skill books in Fallout: New Vegas.


 * Big Book of Science- The bookshelf in Vera's room, to the left of the door you find Christine in.
 * Lying, Congressional Style- At the end of the room with the Holodisk projector during Curtain Call at the Tampico
 * Dean's Electronics- When you put Christine at the switching station, it is to the left when you attempt to hack the terminal in the room with the grenade bouquet and dead body in a leather trenchcoat.
 * D.C. Journal of Medicine- In the Villa Clinic
 * Chinese Spec Ops Manual- In the last room of the switching station, on a catwalk.
 * Tales of a Junktown Jerky Vendor- In Salida del Sol South, go up the stairs that take you to the Salida del Sol House that would take you to Salida del Sol North. Turn South and go across the board that leads you through a hole in the wall. As soon as you enter the hole turn east and it is on the second shelf of the book shelf, directly under the terminal.
 * Nikola Tesla and You- In the Sierra Madre Vault. (When facing the Vault door, turn around and look for a Skeleton on a pipe, there should be a Duffel Bag with the book inside)
 * Guns and Bullets- In the Sierra Madre casino near a safe, downstairs from the door to the Cashier's Office. It is next to the Cashier hologram once you turn the power on.
