--Summary--
My suggestion: making a slap-library, a place for players to read books, write books, and submit books.
This library will be functioning as a separate as a place similar to a minigame(could be implemented there) in minigame world, or possibly as a place there, where players could read, write and submit books that are available for all! if the books are approved, of course.
Books will be written by anyone at any world(which books can be written in, via admin), and the books who will be approved as appropriate and not spam, will be added to this library, that could be accessed anytime by anyone- No need for librarian, or any danger of books being abused/stolen(the technical part explains how will it function)
--End of Summary--
Technical details: skip this if you think TL ; DR)
The books can be selected/received there by "buying" them like in the shop, but without paying any money, or as an alternative the lovely plugin devs could make some sort of function similar to /vip grant, that will allow players to click books in chests of the corresponding genre, and copy the book into their inventory . The books will not be taken outside, and there'll be a book submit chest.
Books can submitted from survival, creative, library via an admin, and when submitted the player will be asked of the genre of the book, the books will be approved by mods/admins/guides that have received authority of approving books(since not all staff has the time, or the will to read every book), a player that has submitted a book will recieve a mail within 45 days if it's book got approved or not, which leaves enough time to check the books.
In the library there you will be able to buy book and quill to write your story, and when a player is done, when submitting a book, the player may receive a copy in either the survival world, or the creative world, if he wishes to.
The inventory won't reset when you leave, so players could keep their progress in book reading or writing.
The books will be placed in an order so you could know whether it's a Series or not, or as an alternative, series books can be colored(their names) in a different color then regular books.
Submitted books must be appropriate, doesn't have to be 100% accurate in their grammer(we ar only uman, we makes mistkes) and can be a part of a series.
If plausible, a featured books/series section could be added in the future, when enough books are in place.
Why a library? (This is in case you don't understand why, or don't think it's a good idea)
There will be guides in the library, that will explain things such as commands, or mechanics in minecraft, the TOS of slap, and other useful info.
The library enriches the server's culture, and could provide fun, and will let players spread their creativity as well to leave their mark upon the server.
With an open library easily accessible, players could share their reading experience, and find friends of similar interests, just like watching a movie, alone it could be fun, but if you got someone to discuss about it, it'll be twice as fun.
A place to store Slap's history, for players to learn about the server and it's history.
Additional thing:
roodypatooty has built an epic library in creative, which look amazing, and might be fitting for a possible library design.
Another additional thing:
players could also fill for book approval, if it looks like much work for staff at first(people transferring books, like the library i have), I could help doing it.
