A feat for teachers with perhaps somewhere near.. 300 or more teaching and scholarship?

Each teacher can publish an instructional book on a single subject of their choosing.

There is a one-time publishing fee. The more teaching and scholarship you have, the more libraries the book appears in across Elanthia.

The more teaching/scholarship/expertise in topic you have, the more money is charged to "rent" the book at the library. Publishing teacher gains a 25% royalty fee which is accumulated and picked up at any publishing location, teacher gains a moderate pulse in teaching/scholarship as they learn how well recieved their book has been.

Books give an appropriate amount of experience based upon a skill check of how advanced the book is. Increased scholarship skill means increased gains for the reader. Reader gains a significant pulse in the book topic and a small scholarship pulse.

One week cooldown on renting the same book.

Just an idea that popped into my head. I have been trying to brainstorm more ways to make lore useful! Any ideas?

Another feat would be the ability to GUIDE someone of lesser skill to give them a bonus to that skill. Size of the bonus would depend on the difference between your skill and their's, the teachers teaching and the student's scholarship. When the student successfully complete's actions using the guided skill, the teacher gains teaching experience, and the student gains scholarship experience, at the cost of less experience gained in the actual skill being taught. Not practical during standard training, but useful if you wanted to do something beyond you for a reason (like hit an invasion critter that's beyond you normally).
