Kaurik, one of the eldest among the Wanderers, is a sort of archivist. He dwells in the ruins of their first city, keeping watch over the remains of a magical library. Where once books of every dragons' life stories once rested, now only a select few remain in his care. He tries to restore as many books as he can, and takes great care to keep the newer books from falling to ruin. Oddly enough, when new drakes find their home among the Wanderers, a new novel appears. Kaurik swears the books of living dragons keep adding chapters over the years, and if he looks closely, he can see new words writing themselves.

Aziraphale, a somewhat large fandragon of mine, is another archivist. He may not have magical books that write themselves, but he [b]does[/b] have a rather extensive wing in the Archives. He treats each tattered scroll with care, padding them with barriers of wind magic to keep delicate parchment from falling apart. He's exceptionally proud of his prophetic section, where each book is scribed by the ones who had their predictions. If asked, he'd happily point to each little message written by the prophets, dubbing the old drake to be their friend. It's best not to question how he was so well known, even back then, or why some refer to him as "the kindeste and moste generouse oft the Ice Father's spawne" in the oldest scrolls available.

Razael would have to be my third bookwyrm. He's not among the eldest like Kaurik, at least not openly, and he doesn't tuck his collection away in the back of the Tourmaline Archives like Aziraphale. No, Razael's collection is readily available to all who seek it, right among the other cookbooks on baking and the art of being a confectioner. If Razael were to ever pride himself in his collection, it would be in just how many ways he's discovered drakes have made chocolate over the countless millennia of Sornieth's life. Aziraphale's books dub him a friend, while Razael prides himself as a fellow confectioner in an ever fluctuating field. He acts as if there's nothing to hide, even breaking many rules by allowing those browsing his collection samples of different sweets found within each fragile page. If one were to look closely, however, they might discover hints that the green-feathered coatl may be something more; Vague notations of a creature long lost to the wilderness of the Gladekeeper's domain, when mutated creatures were swept into a pustules of sickly green, seem to somehow refer to the same sweet-loving Coatl that hands out chocolates with hushed warnings of the stricter archivists that like to wander near his shelves. The ancient creature couldn't be the same as that... right?

Cicero is all that AND he specializes in making books/grimoires.
I have tons of other characters who like reading, but didn't want to clog up the thread, so I just picked the ones who do things related to books as well.
Edit for spelling and I accidentally miscounted the number of dragons I shared lol

Who just recently filled in the role of specializing in being a "mapping" dragon; a scout who flies around new lands and makes sure no danger is around; although not the greatest artist, they're trying their best.
