[Dungeon Fantasy] Spellbooks

I apologize if this has been answered before, but I cannot seem to find a definitive answer.

What, exactly, is a spellbook from the point of view of Dungeon Fantasy? Is it a weighty grimoire (or, more likely, a series of them) containing details on every spell that a mage knows?

My default assumption is that a spellbook is a grimoire containing a select number (no more than 2d, and probably only 1d) of spells. These spells may have been part of a theme (all fire magic, for example), or perhaps they were just the mage's personal favorites. A separate Thaumatology roll is required to identify each spell contained within.

It seems to be workable. Any ideas?
