Trying to expand on a bookworm wizard build. What are the classes that focus on or are flavored by books. No crazy 3rd party stuff thank you, unless it's good for a laugh.

It might not be amazing, but the Dark Scholar (http://dndtools.eu/classes/dark-scholar/) is pretty damn cool.

Wizard 3/Archivist 3/Mystic Theurge.

Feel free to use some early entry trickery if you feel it's necessary.

If you want to be literal about it, take Urban Savant and use the various book magic items that boost Knowledge like the Scrolls of Uncertain Provenance and the Tome of Worldly Memory to boost your Urban Savvy.

If you wanna be very literal about it: find a way to make cheap magical origami paper (OA)
Tear pages out of a book of said paper to make all manner of things.

The tome of magic actually specifically states that written truespeak is ineffective, and no-one uses truename research because it's pointless.
