Reading Enchanted Books
This DataPack enables you to read Enchanted Books, as if they were written books! To read an enchanted book, just hold down right-click. These books are filled with mysterious unique texts... 
Enchanted Book copying
You can also copy enchanted books, by using a new recipe in the crafting table! All you need is the enchanted book you want to copy and a book and quill. (Note: Minecraft forces you to use the recipe book to copy the book for some reason.)
To use this new book, you need to pay a specific amount of levels, dependent on the amount of enchantments the book has. If you have enough levels, right-click the book, whilst it is in your mainhand. This will unlock it.
YOU CAN ALSO TURN OF THE COPYING FEATURE!
To disable it, run this as an admin.
