NOTE: This datapack requires VillagerConfig to work as intented.
Since the release of version 1.17 the trade has remained untouched, aside few minor additions. The concept of making the trade system more complex is a fine addition to the game, however the offers itself shifted balance dramatically, it became almost mandatory to set master tiers for certain villager profession (smiths for diamond tools and armour, librarian for enchantments, farmer for golden carrots) as it is most efficient way to complete the equipment in game now.

Solution is to turn the trade to more of a auxiliary than main source of income, give more purpose to other professions and establish more stable and intuitive economy.

I really enjoy this datapack. I think it gives villagers some much needed balance! But something I noticed was that librarians seemed to be able to sell books they normally aren't able to, such as soul speed and swift sneak. Would love to see these removed from the pool (maybe as well as some other really strong ones like mending)

history
I see. I used template from the config, perhaps the mod uses its own loot table for enchanted books which adds new entries. I shall take a look.

It is required, it serves as a framework for Datapack.
