Skill book recipe

Skill book recipes are a group of holotapes in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Old World Blues.
==Characteristics==
A skill book recipe is a unique crafting ingredient found in the Big MT, and used in the creation of a skill book at a workbench. There are only thirteen such recipes in game, one corresponding to each character skill. The recipes are one-time use items consumed during crafting, preventing the creation of unlimited skill books.
==Locations of recipes==
Skill Book Recipe	Closest Map Marker 	Image	Location Description
Barter 	Signal Hills transmitter 	 	On the ground to the right upon entering, underneath the bottom of the shelves, next to a piece of scrap electronics.
Energy Weapons 	Z-38 lightwave dynamics research 	 	Inside, on the very top catwalk, under the screen of a microfilm reader in the little piece of catwalk that juts out to the left.
Explosives 	X-7a "Left Field" artillery launch	 	In the Artillery Command Center, on the lip of the main console.
Guns 	X-7b "Boom Town" target zone 	 	Inside a footlocker found in one of the small craters. From fast traveling to the location, head forward through fence, third crater on left with the footlocker near the NW corner of the area, after firing the artillery cannon at X-7a "Left Field" Artillery Launch. You must fire the fixed gun located at X-7a "Left Field" first, however.
Lockpick 	X-13 research facility 	 	Hidden inside the SW vent in the Reception Observation Area of the X-13 stealth testing lab. Go across the center bridge (the one with the toolbox and footlocker at the end). When reached, look to the left to see a rectangular vent which can be opened by jumping toward it and activating it in mid-air. The recipe is inside along with some random loot.
Medicine 	Higgs Village 	 	In House #103, upstairs in a bedroom, on the shelf by the desk.
Melee Weapons 	Y-0 research center 	 	On the roof.
Repair 	Higgs Village 	 	Inside House #00. Sandwiched in a rack of old world scientific equipment on the upstairs landing. Look opposite the table with the toolbox, and it is between the lowest two items of equipment.
Science 	Higgs Village 	 	In House #102 upstairs in the bedroom, on top of a computer, next to a stack of others in the right corner nearest to the door.
Sneak 	X-13 research facility 	 	In the X-13 stealth testing lab, inside the Testing Area, found on the floor of the kitchen area, between the 2 fridges.
Speech 	Higgs Village 	 	On top of a radio on the second floor of House #104.
Survival 	Little Yangtze 	 	In the northeastern tent, first to the right when entering from the fast travel point, under the closest bed to the right after entering the tent.
Unarmed 	Big MT West Tunnel 	 	Inside, behind a locked door (Easy) to the right upon entering.
