My pirate campaign has been running for several years, and I've gathered all my lore in 4 books. I have a chapter dedicated to the setting in general, describing factions, regions and certain islands. Then I have a chapter every big location. Every one of these starts with a basic description, before listing every sub location, and describing them. For example, each capital city has a list of important locations, which also lists the npc's that are there. And each of these locations has a short description as well. I also keep one big list of npc's, a list of the names of the months and seasons. A list for all the types of currency. A list of all the deities, etc.
Then there's a book with every map of every city, dungeon, or other location I've ever made a map for.
Then I have a book with all the monsters, including custom ones.
Lastly a book of custom equipment. My campaign features a lot of firearms, that are homebrew additions. Also upgrades for ships, armaments for ships, and gadgets from other expansion books. Each faction has their own shopping list of equipment.
It seemed like the only way to keep a campaign of this size organized.
