'''Ars Arcanum''' (Latin for "The Art of Magic") is a glossary or appendix section at the end of the books that are part of the [[Cosmere]] universe. The information is presented from an in-universe perspective {{qa ref|?|632|4|In who's voice is the Ars Acranum written?}}
 
For example, the books in the [[Mistborn trilogy]] each have an Ars Arcanum with the table of [[Metallic Arts]], describing what each of the [[Allomantic]] metals does. The Ars Arcanum in ''[[The Way of Kings]]'' tabulates the gemstones used in [[Surgebinding]].
