Reasons why players should use enchanted books in Minecraft

Get specific enchantment

When players apply powerups with an enchanting table, they don't know which enchantment they will get, as it is completely random. Most of the time, they might get something they do not need, making it difficult to get specific powerups.

This can be countered by finding villagers and placing a lectern to employ them as librarians. These types of villagers can occasionally give certain enchanted books for a certain amount of books and emeralds.

Players can break and place the lectern to keep changing the trade list until they find the desired book. Once they find a particular enchantment, they can trade with the villager.

Treasure enchantment

There are certain enchantments that cannot be found in an enchanting table, hence players will have to find them in the wilderness. These can only be found in the form of books.

After players apply a higher level of enchantment on a gear, they may also get one or two bonus enchantments. However, they might not be exactly what the players wanted. Whereas, if players combine enchanted books, they can get what they need.

Players can combine these books to get one strong book that they can apply on an item in one go.
