People might often just run about trying to trade whatever willy-nilly, but that won't help.
If you have some paper or books you wrote, trade with a librarian! If you want something enchanted, trade with a priest (though it is usually much more efficient to enchant things yourself). , Emeralds are used as a currency for the villagers, and every trade is an exchange of an item for an emerald.
They are found in Extreme Hills and Extreme Hills Edge biomes between height levels 32 and
4.
However, even when mining in an extreme hills biome they are rarer than diamonds, so it's best to just trade for them.

They can try to trade a flint and steel in exchange for an emerald, an iron shovel for an emerald, four an emerald for a diamond etc.
