Per 
BY ORDER OF THE O5 COUNCIL
The following file is Level 5 classified. Unauthorised access will be met with harsh reprimand and possible termination.
Special Containment Procedures:
SCP-XXXX is to be stored inside a 2m x 2m x 2m room made of thick metal walls.. A silent, miniature tracker is placed on SCP-XXXX connecting straight to Site-██'s director and the O5 council's computer, incase of a theft attempt by the organisation which created/found it. After Incident XXXX-2, security has been drastically increased. Only personnel which have Level 4 Level 5 clearance may enter the 25m radius of SCP-XXXX's containment chamber. All unauthorised personnel attempting to enter this radius are to be terminated immediately.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a large, red book with a gold inscription of a symbol of unknown meaning, measuring 20cm in length, 10cm in width and roughly 200 pages. When SCP-XXXX is opened the text on the pages will change dependant on the viewer. All viewers have reported the pages displaying the answer to questions they've wanted the answer to within the span of ten (10) months in reverse chronological order. The object is restricted to Level 4/XXXX clearance, due to how easily the object can be lost if not heavily guarded. SCP-XXXX was retrieved from a 'base of operations' located in ███████,█████████ in the middle of the countryside.
Addendum XXXX-1: Retrieval
18/11/2006
Retrieval Team 57, a seven man team, are sent to an undisclosed location in the countryside. Where reports of civilian sacrifices and anomalous behaviour are reported.RT-57-1: "RT-57-1 to command, we have visual on the target."
Operation Command: "Command to RT-57-1, please proceed to the target carefully."
Retrieval Team 57 approach the target with caution.
Operation Command: "RT-57, can you report what you see."
RT-57-3: "It appears to be a library, although it's in the middle of nowhere."
RT-57 proceed to the entrance of the library.
RT-57-1: "RT-57-1 to command, requesting permission to enter target."
Operation Command: "Command to RT-57-1, request accepted."
RT-57-5 proceeds to kick down the door, all RT-57 units raise their guns, ready to fire.
RT-57-7: Holy [EXPLETIVE].
Operation Command: "What do you see? Everyone enable chest cameras."
All RT-57 units activate their chest cameras.
The cameras flicker for a few seconds before showing the mess inside the library.
The library appears to be strewn with corpses, all of which have had fatal cuts to the throat.
Operation Command: "RT-57, please proceed into the library and examine the corpses for any clues. It seems signal is cutting out here, you're on your own."
RT-57-6 moves towards one of the civilian bodies.
RT-57-6: "This guy's throat is slit."
RT-57 proceeds towards a pile of books inside the centre of the library.
RT-57-4 picks up one of the books and begins to read.
After 15 seconds after reading RT-57-4 signals to the rest of RT-57.
RT-57-4: "Hey, come check this out!"
RT-57-1: "These are all answers to questions I had, oh nice, Pizza day is tomorrow."
The book is designated SCP-XXXX and is packaged inside a retrieval box.
RT-57-5 takes the retrieval box outside and is secured inside the helicopter.
RT-57-5 rejoins the team shortly later and continues the search.
Footsteps and shuffling are heard, all RT-57 units raise their guns.
RT-57-1: "Everyone behind me, proceed cautiously."
3 minutes later, RT-57 comes across a trapdoor and open it.
The trapdoor leads into a tunnel made of dirt and stone, it appears to be mined by hand.
RT-57 proceeds down the tunnel which is growing smaller with every step.
RT-57-6: "Damn, this place is claustrophobic."
RT-57-6 peeks his head around the tunnel.
RT-57-6: "HEY! Who the hell are y-"
RT-57-6 is shot in the head and immediately dies.
RT-57-1: "Everyone fire, NOW!"
RT-57 follows command and terminates the shooter.
The shooter is wearing body armour and a combat jacket and is proven as being a member of the organisation.
RT-57 retreat back to the helicopter for fear of more armed cult members.
RT-57's signal reconnects and Operation Command is heard through the radio again.
Operation Command: "RT-57, what the hell happened back there!"
RT-57-1: "That guy back there was wearing combat gear. We're messing with a coordinated criminal organisation using the anomalous for their own gain, with anomalies that give you infinite knowledge at their side they can be a formidable threat. We need this SCP under Level 4 clearance immediately. We also need to capture one of these cult members for interrogation, we need all we can to protect this book thing from prying hands."
[END LOG]
Following this, we have managed to obtain custody of one 'cult member' for interrogation, see the log below.
Addendum XXXX-2: Interrogation.
**2/4/2007Dr. ███████: "Alright, let's start with what your name is."
???: "Carlos.."
Dr. ███████: "So your name is Carlos?"
Carlos nods his head.
Dr. ███████: "Can you tell me the objective of your organisation?"
Carlos: "We were,, going to use the book to destroy governments."
Dr. ███████: "I see, so you just wanted to use the book for taking over governments."
Carlos nods his head.
Dr. ███████: "Can you tell me the date for your next attack?
Carlos: "2nd of June, on the west side of the US."
Dr, ███████: [To security member] "Can you inform the O5 council of this information?"
[END LOG]
With the happening of Incident XXXX-1, it was proven that 'Carlos' was just a distraction for the Foundation so another organisation member could steal SCP-XXXX, when a search for Carlos was initiated, he was nowhere to be found.
Test XXXX-1
DATE: 9/6/2007
D-6732 was administered Class-A amnestication prior to this test which wiped all previous memories since being captured as a Class-D and was released into SCP-XXXX's containment chamber.
D-6732: "So, I just uhh, open this thing?"
Researcher ███: "That is correct."
D-6732 opens SCP-XXXX,
D-6732: "Hey, where exactly are we?"
Researcher ███: "That information is unavailable to D-Class, can you tell me where we are?"
D-6732: "Well, according to this book thing we're in… 'Site-██?'
Researcher ███: Writing on clipboard "That is correct.."
D-6732 reads more of the book.
D-6732: "Hey, who's Jared ██████?"
Researcher ███: "Let me check."
Researcher ███ checks his clipboard for D-6732's name before he was entered into foundation custody, which, remarkably, seems to be Jared ██████.
Researcher ███: "I'm afraid I have no idea."
D-6732: "Oh well, I thought it might have had something to do with me.."
Researcher ███: "I'm going to ask you some questions now, I'd like you to answer them."
D-6732 gives a slight nod.
Researcher ███: "Alright, can you tell me the millionth digit of Pi, you can use the book in the room if you wish."
D-6732, after glancing at SCP-XXXX, answers the question correctly.
Researcher ███: "Can you now guess the number I have written down on my clipboard."
D-6732 glances at SCP-XXXX again before correctly answering the question.
Researcher ███: "Alright, I think that's enough for today."
D-6732 is escorted out of the room for immediate amnestication.
Researcher ███ grabs his pen and begins writing on the notes section of his clipboard; Subject appears to have the answer to have the immediate answer to where he is, what his previous name was and the answer to every question given to him. SCP-XXXX has now been proven to give infinite knowledge to the reader, making this SCP incredibly dangerous if in the wrong hands. This book could display all of the foundations secrets such as SCP-2000 meaning this must be one of the most heavily guarded anomalies in the entire Foundation catalog. Requesting for this book to be put under strict O5 clearance only.
[Clearance updated from Level 4 to Level 5 clearance by the O5 council.]
Incident-XXXX-1: Theft
2/6/2007Dr. ███████ enters the viewing room for SCP-XXXX to find it missing, he alerts MTF but almost everyone specialised in combat is in the west of North America. The only three MTF specialised in this sort of thing are alerted, however they are incredibly underpowered.
Commander. Jackson: "Listen up men, the faster we find this book and the guy who stole it, the faster we can get back to pizza day.
Cadet. Jones: "Man, pizza day is the only reason I still work for this place.
Shuffling and flicking of paper is heard before ceasing abruptly.
Lieutenant. Grey: "Guns up."
All 3 men raise their guns.
They all turn the corner, the figure behind the corner is wearing protective equipment such as a low round bulletproof vest and a face shielder. They do not appear to have the foundation emblem on their clothes.
All units fire at the man but remarkably, the man somehow dodges all the bullets and proceeded to kill Cadet Jones with a karambit concealed in his vest.
All units reload and begin firing again but miss all their shots, Lieutenant. Grey is killed by a poison needle fired from a miniature cannon on the man's right index finger and dies instantly.
Commander. Jackson attempts to flee but is shot down by the figure.
Commander. Jackson: "Commander. Jackson to Site-██, we are down, initiate full Sector-2 lockdo-"
A gunshot is heard.
Despite the Lockdown, the man was able to escape and SCP-XXXX-1 has been lost from foundation custody. A retrieval of SCP-XXXX is the foundation's greatest priority since the book can leak many secrets about the foundation to unwanted eyes.
6 days after Incident XXXX-1, Incident XXXX-2 occurred. The following is a video log of Dr, █████ explaining the changes to SCP-XXXX's containment procedures following Incident XXXX-2 in which a fire, confirmed to be created with the knowledge from SCP-XXXX, somehow spread across the whole of the eastern side of North America, reducing cities to ashes, the fire consumed 1100 square kilometers of ground before the Foundation could stop it. About 10,500 civilian casualties were recorded.

[BEGIN LOG]
15:37: "Hello everyone, this is Dr. █████ and I'm here today to tell you what happened yesterday."
15:37: "As most of you know, the eastern part of New York is nothing more than rubble, by searching the area with aerial view we can now confirm that the man behind the anomalous attacks on New York is a member of GoI-8910-21."
15:38: Papers can be heard shuffling.
15:38: "Now as you know, the American government is one of the biggest funders for the foundation, so losing them would effectively put us at a weak position, which is why we have put the destruction of GoI-8910-21 as our top priority right now. The director of this project is currently Level 4 Senior Researcher, Dr. ███."
15:39: More papers can be heard shuffling.
15:39: "Regarding the changes to SCP-XXXX's containment procedures, here are the following, please remember that none of these will come into effect until SCP-XXXX is recontained. At least 5 security units are to be stationed at SCP-XXXX's containment chamber and no books are to be brought into or out of the facility. If SCP-XXXX is ever removed from it's containment chamber, a Level 4 lockdown should commence immediately, SCP-XXXX's containment chamber and all facility within a 50m radius of the containment chamber is to be heavily guarded and monitored. Checks if SCP-XXXX is still in the containment chamber should be performed every hour. To sum it up, make sure nothing gets close to it."
