When i had stood before one of my cupboards full of recipe parchements & thinking how many space is consumed, i also was thinking about ways how to save some space. And got an idea.
As everybody knows, we already have a scetchbook, bought from the store, but why we couldn't craft something similar?

So, the idea, how to craft them, is composed from several parts:
1) we craft 2 planks from 1 board, for that we need crafting recipe, opened with first dicovery of a board;
2) we also need a "Hardened leather" recipe to proceed;
3) by combining it with help of a "Blank book" recipe, we're getting a book blank(obviously), which can contain up to 32 written parchments;

Then, if we take a written parchment wil left mouse button & then "implement" it on a book with a right mouse button, the written parchment will be somewhat "moved" from a cursor into the book blank, turning it into a several specific type of a book, depended on the type of written parchment used to craft it. So, if we combine a "recipe" type, we'll get a "Recipe book"(food or handcraft - doesn't matter); if a parchment with written combat move, then book blank become a "Book of Martial Arts"(unarmed or melee also doesn't matter); if char description parchment, it becomes "The book of people"(don't know how to name it, sorry); if just general hand-written parchment, it become just general "A book", allowing for people to make chronicles of their village or make some sort of fiction books. That about the types of made books.
Anyway, you still need another written parchment with it's name for the book implemented to the filled book to name it.

Also, if all that looks too easy, it, may be, could be only crafted after you finish a "Scholar" credo(as variant).

P.S. Please comment & argumentedly critisize!

A good search found at least two threads, one of them, I think, being identical, or at least had the same ideas in it. (Several links in the first post to previous threads with similar/same ideas.)
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

Well, yes. My idea somewhat similar, but, i think, needs much less work than your example.
