This is just like the Silk Touch X you get. You can put it on a book, but when you place it back on a tool, it just becomes Silk Touch I as there really isn't any thing more silk touchy than silk touch.
they're awesome for making magical wood though
try to get an enchant with the highest level, which often is V but there should also be a quest reward with X
make an enchanted plate of those books, which will be a bit costly, but here's the catch
instead of using up the enchanted plate, only make 2 books with it, that should leave the plate with 1 use left
now craft yourself a Mariculture ring and put the restoration enchant on it, doesn't matter which level, but I prefer level 1 as it'll only restore the item you're currently holding (should save on durability)
now equip the ring and hold the plate and voila, in a few seconds it's completely repaired and you can continue to make more books with the plate
just remember to only do 2 books a time, because the plates only have 3 uses
