Book Scroll
by ENC_Euphony
Book Scroll lets players turn the pages of readable and editable books with the mouse wheel instead of clicking the page arrows.
What it does
Turning pages in a book becomes a matter of scrolling. With the mouse wheel, a player moves through the pages of a written or readable book without reaching for the on-screen arrows, which speeds up reading long books and notes.
The mod runs only on the client, so the server does not need it and players can keep joining servers without installing anything extra. It is built for Fabric and NeoForge and has files for 26.1 and 26.1.1, with 1.0.1 as the latest release. Yet Another Config Lib (YACL) is an optional dependency that adds a configuration screen, and the mod is released under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 only, so its source code is public.
Key features
Mouse wheel page turning
Scrolling the mouse wheel over an open book moves forward or back through its pages.
Readable and editable books
Both written books and books being edited can be paged through with the wheel.
Adjustable Ctrl speed
Holding Ctrl multiplies the page-turn speed, and the multiplier can be set in the options.
Optional page-turn sound
A sound can play on each page turn, and it can be switched off for players who prefer silence.

Use cases
Reading long books
Written books with many pages can be read quickly, moving through several pages with one scroll.
Editing a long book
A player revising a long book can jump between pages with the wheel and keep the cursor in place.
Who it’s for: Players who read or write long books in survival or creative worlds, and players who use the mouse heavily and want page navigation without the arrows.
How it compares
Scrollable Item Tooltips is a Fabric-only, client-side mod for 26.1.2 under the MIT License, and it scrolls item tooltips rather than book pages. SimpleScrollToolTips is also Fabric-only and client-side, open source under the MIT License, with files for 26.1 – 26.2. CopyPasteBooks is open source under the MIT License, works on Fabric and NeoForge and covers 26.1 – 26.2, but it copies and pastes book content instead of turning pages.
