The 3x3 grid for the bookshelf sits at the top of the tool, and the Materials tab turns the books into sugar cane and leather for whatever amount you pick.
Planks in the top and bottom rows, 3 books in the middle one. The planks can be any wood.
The 3 books turn into 9 cane and 3 leather, and the 2 logs give 8 planks, with 2 left over.
The 288 cane fill 4 stacks and 32, and the leather 1 stack and 32. The 48 logs give 192 planks, exactly 32 times 6.
Each bookshelf costs 9 emeralds. Using up all 12 trades means 108 emeralds for 12 bookshelves.
The loot table has a Silk Touch branch. Without it, the bookshelf turns into books.
It adds up what each item needs across all branches and only then rounds the number of crafts up. One log makes 4 planks; if you need 5, that is 2 logs and 3 planks left over. Leftovers show on the Materials tab and are reused by other items on your list before more raw material is requested.
It takes 3 books and 6 planks. Since each book comes from 3 cane and 1 leather, that is 9 cane and 3 leather per bookshelf.
Its loot table has a Silk Touch branch. Without the enchantment you get books; with it, the whole block comes back.

It is 96 leather (1 stack + 32) and 288 sugar cane (4 stacks + 32), plus 48 logs for the planks.
