So the commander of my militia also happens to be a writer. He authored this cheerful little book about the history of an elven settlement:



Rather than stash his work in the library, however, he has instead decided to, um... run around hitting people with it.

"You will learn!  By osmosis!  Now!"

[FortunaDraken]

Best use of books.

I'm trying to get a handle on how books are written. Was your commander also assigned to a Library as a Scholar/Scribe, or did he just write it on a whim?

I have a milker running around with his poorly written report about a hillock somewhere that's he's beaten two giant grey langurs to death with. It's pretty awesome.

Released for less thab a week and already the new features are being used to kill people

Of course, simply bashing people with a book is not properly dwarfy. Now, if books were discovered to be infinitely stackable, or capable of being enormously dense depending on the materials used to make then...

"This is a slade bound codex..."

[Furtuka]

Reminds me of the stories of how in the olden days dwarves would carry the artifacts they made around with them no matter how impractical the size.

... like the Mighty Organs with the 100s of pipes they are building now?

Pretty sure he had it when he migrated. Guest scholars definitely write stuff in the library though, and I'd imagine people you assign do as well, assuming the materials and desks/chairs/bookcases are there.
