Enchanted Book Stack
by KURONAMI
Enchanted Book Stack lets a single inventory slot hold up to 54 enchanted books, which can be opened like a chest and carried between bases.
What it does
Enchanted Book Stack adds one portable item that stores up to 54 enchanted books, arranged in the same 9 by 6 grid as a large chest. Opening the stack shows that grid, and a hover tooltip lists the first five enchantments it contains. Only enchanted books can be placed inside, so regular books and other items are refused.
The stack can hold other stacks no deeper than one level: it cannot be nested inside another Enchanted Book Stack, which prevents recursion. It stores its contents through vanilla's own container component, the same one used by bundles, and it works with hoppers and pipes from logistics mods. Fabric API is required on Fabric. The Forge and NeoForge builds need no extra dependency.
Installing the mod on the server and on each client is needed, since the environment is client and server. Enchanted books can be obtained from an Expert-level librarian for 24 emeralds and 4 leather, or from the creative inventory. The mod is released under All rights reserved, and it is not open source, though its source code is public.
Key features
54-slot enchanted book storage
One stack holds 54 enchanted books in a grid that matches a large chest, so a large book collection takes a single slot.
Preview of contents
Hovering over the stack shows the first five enchantments it contains, similar to a shulker box tooltip.
Stacks like an ordinary item
The stack is a single-slot item that can be moved, dropped and stored like any other item, and it always glints like an enchanted book.
Right-click to open
Holding the stack and right-clicking an enchanted book, or the reverse, moves the book into the stack without opening a screen.
