How to unlock the Librarian achievement in The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings - Definitive Guide
Entry 1
Once you enter the asylum continue until you can jump down. You will find a chest on your right hand side next to the blocked off doorway.
Entry 2
After jumping down a second time, kill the wraiths, then look for the chest that would be on your right hand side as you jump down.
Entry 3
Talk to Gridley, then head towards the fire. On your right hand side is a doorway where you will find the medicine needed. Just to the left there is another doorway which is very hard to see. Inside will be the third chest and required document.
Entry 4
After talking to the ghost, head to the back of the room and you will find the last chest with the final document needed for this achievement.
Please excuse the darkness in the video. I forgot to use the Cat potion so that everything would be easier to see.
To get this achievement you need to first talk to the elf Cedric outside of Flotsam and ask if there is any work to do, this will give you the quest called "In the Claws of Madness". After that head into the woods and head south towards the "pond" area the the stream leads to...head up the path on the right side of the pond while facing it and you will find the ruins...enter the ruins and make your way through them...along the way to you fight wraiths...loot the treasure boxes in the area of the wraiths to acquire 3 of the files. The forth and final file is in the room with the Nilfgaardian's ghost.
This achievement is tied in with the In the Claws of Madness side quest.
Once in the asylum in the forest outside Flotsam, your main task will be to locate Gridley. That’s your main objective. This achievement is for finding four hospital files scattered around inside, telling the history of the asylum.
Hospital File 1
Enter the building and walk until the ghost sets the asylum on fire. Continue on until you reach an area where you can jump down. Once down, turn to your right you’ll see a chest. The first hospital file is in there.
Hospital File 2
Keep on walking until you reach a spot where you can jump down again. Once down, kill the wraiths then look for the chest. It’s to the right of the spot that jumped down into.
Hospital File 3
Talk to Gridley and head towards the fire. On your right hand side is a doorway where you will find the medicine needed. Just to the left of the room with the medicine, you’ll see another doorway. It’s difficult to see, but it’s there. Inside will be another chest, inside which is the third hospital file.
Hospital File 4
The last hospital file is found at the back of the room in which you talk to the ghost.
