Description

You conjure a small handheld portal which you may use to store written works in a pocket dimension suitable for books. When you cast this spell, you sustain the portal for a number of rounds equal to your caster level. Any suitable written works which you touch during the duration of this spell are transported to a personal pocket demiplane where your books are kept safe from most interplanar denizens. The amount of books you may store with one casting of this spell usually depends upon your movespeed, though other factors may play into this, at GM discretion. Living creatures may not pass through or otherwise utilize the portal from this spell (though using effects such as Plane Shift to reach the library independently are viable).

You may store up to 5 cubic feet of books in the demiplane per caster level you possess at one time. The amount of books composing a 5 ft. cube is determined by the GM, as books themselves can vary greatly in shape and size. You may summon any book from your collection by concentrating as a Full Round Action, which causes the book to appear in your open hand(s), or in one adjacent square (chosen at the time of concentration). To send a summoned book back to the library, you must recast this spell.

Alternatively you may send the targeted book to any library which you have full access or any property you own that has a structure capable of safely storing books. (It must be on the same plane, unless it is an alternate plane which you created.)

You may also use this spell offensively: when you succeed at a melee touch attack against a creature holding a targeted book, the creature must make a Will saving throw against the DC of this spell, or have their book taken to your library. A sentient book may roll independently, if it so chooses.
