Add the following tomes to the list in Rule 2.7.1:
Book of Water(3 copies)
Condensation
Circumstances:This spell may be cast if the Student casting it has a positive Thirst, has a nonzero mythos knowledge, and has not cast Alertness Ritual, Condensation or Douse in the last N hours, where N is 48 if e has ever cast the Drink the Book spell or 72 otherwise.
Consequences:Decrease the Thirst of the Student who cast this spell by 2.Douse

Book of Paper
Reading the Blank Page
Circumstances:This spell may be cast if the Student casting it has a Sanity less than -50.
Consequences:The Student who cast this spell makes a post to the front page describing a fantastic piece of writing they swear appears on that particular page under the right circumstances. (The page is, of course, always blank to sane Students…)
Tommy:
“if e had either” doesn’t now make any sense, but I shouldn’t think that matters.
Also, I think the consequences of Drink the Book should include a reduction of the number of copies by 1, and the circumstances should include a provision that stops the same Student drinking more than one book. If the Rule passes, I’ll try and remember to propose an amendment.
