Just to clarify ... according to Zenimax there are "over 700 books". We know from the Modding community that there are 2200 (roughly) books, including notes, which would leave us with about 1500 notes.

This number seems incredibly massive, but I've found that in pretty much EVERY dungeon and EVERY town, theres anywhere from 2-5 notes throughout. (Depending on the size of the dungeon/town obviously.) Add that to the sheer number of locations, and it gets VERY big, VERY quickly.
