In the book of alien languages, the alien text is left-aligned but the Morse code is center-aligned. Could this mean something?
Ilmarinen Moderator

(I'm really grasping <.<)
Maybe take the first letter from the first book, the second from the second and so on...

That's what I got when I took the nth character from each book
Ilmarinen Moderator

Ilmarinen Moderator

Nope, not Priernsyfe1

Ok, so the clues are by the source of knowledge, the top of the columns, and an answer merged together. Well, what if the word "source" wasn't a location, but something with source in the name like maybe the source code? It's worth a shot, but I don't know how to get to the source code.

Like Kim mentioned, this site isn't open source. But feel free to check the HTML. We also have 2 more hints: "These columns have spines" and "the way the answer is merged is quite regular"

Yeah, I'm trying to get to the HTML, but I just usually get the website. I'll get to it eventually though. I'll be sure to tell you guys if I find anything in the HTML.
Ilmarinen Moderator

Sweet! Thanks!
GuntherSavage7272

No problem.
I guess you guys got this one already?

Okay, I got to the HTML. I'll try to see what I can find. So, our clues are by the source of knowledge, the top of the columns, an answer merged together, odd even odd even, these columns have spines, and the way to the answer is quite regular. Well, the way to get to the HTML is pretty regular. The article I used to teach myself how to get to it had one set of instructions and it works for most browsers.

I feel like we're so close...

So, I got the last hint covered and the first one as well. But the odd, even, odd, even hint stumps me. Anybody want to look at it too? You just have to make sure you don't type anything into it. One new key in it could mess it up.
