What you want to target is SKCAT:category.

For example, gives(+1 to SKCAT:book) would grant +1 per level to all skills that fall into the category book. Likewise, gives(=+1 to SKCAT:athletic) would grant a fixed +1 to all athletic skills.

ETA: If you find yourself doing a bonus to multiple categories at once, look up Compound Bonuses in the Data File Reference Guide to avoid possible issues with traits in multiple categories getting multiple bonuses.
You rock !
