:No, that only works for weapons and armor.  From [[read.c#line961]], the check for erodeproofing is:
 
−
    if(uwep && (uwep->oclass == WEAPON_CLASS || is_weptool(uwep)) && confused) {

:So only weapons and weapon-tools (pick-axes mainly) will be made fooproof.  It may be possible to wish for a "fireproof" spellbook in wizard mode, but I actually doubt that would protect it against anything.  Erosion protection protects against just that - erosion.  Destruction of spellbooks is handled elsewhere, and it doesn't take erosion protection into account.

:As a sidenote, one spellbook is naturally "fireproof" - the [[spellbook of fireball]], though if the book gets blanked it's just as vulnerable to destruction as any other.  And of course, the [[Book of the Dead]] can't be destroyed. -[[User:Ion frigate|Ion frigate]] 14:03, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Is it possible to wield a spellbook as a weapon then read a scroll of Enchant weapon while confused to make the spellbook fireproof?

I tried to figure this out myself in Wizard mode but then discovered the GUI I was using made it nigh impossible to enter Wizard mode (side question how do I enter wizard mode in Vulture's Eye?)
