Ok i have a book binder and a library at lev 5 but what good are they ? it costs 25 magic points to make a book but when you convert it into research you only get 20 magic points back and nothing else that i can see ?

The converting back to research points is more for shipping research between towns; their main other use as username says is for magic

I would make magetower first so you can get some mana resources.
And then make the bookbinder.

Yea, I would reccomend doing the bookbinding first (as you already have), then start magic research/building you mage tower. making books is a rather lenghty process and by the time you have books made, you should have your magic researches done and your mage tower up. (don't forget to research the type of spell you want :P)

-edit: i did the tower first and in the length of time it's taken to get books, I've accumulated an absurd about of mana lol
