Each of the tomes unlocks the 3 researchable spells for that culture, the hero skills that the culture has unlocked at the start, and the special province improvements for that culture.
The tomes do not unlock culture units, culture specific city structures or the special resource related culture skills like Feudal Lords, Scout Prospecting and Astral Echos.
If you find any bugs, or would like to discuss/request alternate implimentations, pleasepost them in this very thread.

Known issues:
-- You start a new game with double the affinity from your culture.
---- The tomes grant some affinity, and the tome of the culture you start with also grants the affinity from your culture; but the game handles the distinctly from the affinity given by your culture choice directly. I figured people who enjoy this mod would prefer a more empowering play experience over the technical accuracy of the tomes granting no affinity at all.
If you feel differently, or have other suggestions please let me know in the forum thead.
