✅ Method 1 — Enchant a Cheap Item (Fastest Vanilla Trick)
The only way to reroll or reshuffle the enchanting list in an enchanting table is to enchant any item. Game8 The trick? Apply the lowest level of enchantment to low-level gear like wooden tools and weapons — it won’t take much XP and won’t waste precious resources. Game8 This refreshes the table’s offers instantly.

Remove the enchantments by using a grindstone and start fresh. It’s free, fast, and lets you re-enchant the same item with a completely new set of options. Just note you’ll lose the enchantments already applied.
✅ Method 3 — Librarian Villager (Best for Specific Enchants)
This is the most reliable long-term method. A normal villager turns into a librarian if they connect to a lectern block. When this block breaks, the villager loses their job and resets the trade list — players can keep breaking and placing the lectern while checking if they are getting the exact enchantment they want.

Once you lock in your desired enchanted book trade, that librarian becomes your permanent enchantment source.
✅ Method 4 — Adjust Bookshelves
Enchantment power equals the number of bookshelves placed one block away with an air gap — maximum power at 15 bookshelves yields level options up to 30. GameRant Removing or adding shelves changes the available level range and can shift which enchantments appear.
