I was a level 21 Runekeeper and I could have snuck by the mobs in the area to get the books, but carefully took out a few creatures to make sure nothing surprised me.
By starting at the eastern edge of hills just northeast of Harloeg and just south of the road you pick up the first book (Men) on top of the cliff. Then hop down into the stream that follows the base of the cliff to the next book in the middle of the stream on a little island. Then cut across east to the next water way and over to a sizable island. It is long and thin and runs mostly N/S. The third book is on the western edge and the fourth is across the island on the eastern edge as you look at the wrecked cart in the water.
Only mobs I needed to attack were less than level 25.
Hope this helps as checking coords while trying to avoid nasties is nerve wracking.

Bestowal
'You may be able to help me with something, (your name). By the advice of Mithrandir, Master Elrond agreed to send several books detailing the histories of the Free Peoples from the library of Imladris to the towns of Men in the Bree-land, to inspire among the people there a sense of unity against the darkness. In this way, Mithrandir argued, free folk would have access to lore of the various peoples and could better understand their neighbours. A waggon-driver of good character, Harry Wheelwright, was chosen to bear the books on their journey into Bree-land and back to Imladris after some time was given for their circulation.
'It would seem that though Master Elrond's faith in the driver was not misplaced, the team of horses selected to pull the waggon was not of similar quality. On the return journey to Imladris, the horses were crazed by the scent of some beast, and the waggon was pulled off the road. Much to our disappointment and Harry's shame, the books were lost. If you would speak to Harry and set about collecting the lost tomes, I would gratefully allow you access to the superior study of Imladris, the finest place that remains between the Sea and the Mountains for scholarly pursuits.
'You will find Harry at the stables of Imladris.'
Background
Deluros is concerned about several stacks of books lost when creatures in the Lone-lands spooked the horses pulling a waggon bound for Imladris.
