Are the Jane Killick scene by scene books worth collecting? I will likely collect them anyway just because they are about B5, but I would like to collect the best B5 items first, and then move on to the other stuff that I'd have to have just to be a completist, but that may not actually add anything to the B5 experience. Unless of course there isn't anything out there like that. 
The script books are still too expensive for my taste and I have all of the canon trilogies, pluse "To Dream in the city of Sorrows, and The Shadow Within - my favorite standalone, so far" . I also have the "In Valen's Name" comics, and The price of peace, graphic novel" .
I have heard the non canon B5 books are atrocious, although I do want to get "Clark's Law" because that is the only part of the Earth Alliance Civil War that I was dissatisfied with. We never got to get to Know Clark as a person, or really got to know the story of what drove him to collaborate with the shadows and to kill President Santiago. And I will prolly get the others eventually. Knowing me I will likely find a way to enjoy them, since I have already enjoyed a few movies that other fans seem to hate. *crosses fingers*
I am rereading my Price of Peace gn and just realized we do get to meet Clark briefly and see a little of earth. I'd forgotten.
I especially want to know this part of the story because I am currently on season 4 of DS9, and just watched the trek version of that war. JMS is of course the master, and I still prefer anything B5 over anything Trek, however, with the Trek 2 part episode we did get to know Leyton pretty well, and what drove him, and we actually got to be on Earth during the Martial Law aspects, as short and inconsequential as it turned out to be.
I thought by not going to Earth it helped us viewers to feel the isolation felt by everyone aboard B5, and to just hear secondhand what was going on down below, so I am not complaining, but I still feel like I am missing a tiny piece of the puzzle.
