Name: Ascendance of a Bookworm Raw Link: http://ncode.syosetu.com/n4830bu/ NU Link: https://www.novelupdates.com/series/ascendance-of-a-bookworm/ Why It Should Get Picked Up: Ascendance of bookworm is another Japanese isekai where the MC has a lot of trouble to realize her objectives. Main reason to read this is for the good world building and fun/interesting characters. Description: Urano, a bookworm who had finally found a job as a librarian at a university, was sadly killed shortly after graduating from college. She was reborn as the daughter of a soldier in a world where the literacy rate is low and books were scarce. No matter how much she wanted to read, there were no books around. What is a bookworm to do without any books? Make them, of course. Her goal is to become a librarian! So that she may once again live surrounded by books, she must start by making them herself.
For those saying that this has a translator, blastron has dropped this series and won't be translating it anymore.
"When I was setting my New Year’s resolutions for 2019, “stick to your release schedule” was pretty high up on the list. After thinking it over, though, I realized that the main reason that I haven’t been able to reliably get a chapter out is because, quite frankly, I’m tired of translating this story. When I thought about how it would take me literally over a decade to get through it at my current rate, I realized that it wasn’t a question of if I was going to drop it, but when, and since I’m not enjoying myself anymore, it might as well be now. So, unfortunately, I’m going to stop translating Ascendance of a Bookworm. This was a tough decision to make, and I’m sorry to disappoint everyone who has been patiently waiting for the next chapter. I’ll be doing one last big editing pass to (finally) fix up character names and lingering typos, then go dark for a couple months or so while I figure out what I’ll be getting into next. Thanks to all of you for sticking with me, and I hope you’ll come back when I decide on what my next project will be. (If any of you would like to take up this particular project, please let me know! I’d be happy to set up links to your page once you get off the ground.)" From Translator's website
