The BookVars plugin from Leximation will do all of this. It's an excellent 
plugin.

Subject: Variables based on paragraph tags at the book level?

Is there a way to use the 12 built-in Running H/F variables in FrameMaker to 
pull in text based on paragraph tags that appear only in other documents within 
the book?

For example, it'd be nice if I could define – in the footer of each chapter in 
a book – the Running H/F variables to pull in the document title, product name, 
and version number based on what appears on the book's title page (based on 
paragraph tags that are used only in the title page file).

Or, is the only way to set up those kinds of book-wide variables to define our 
own variables in one file and import them to all the other files in the book?

Thanks in advance,

Jason Nichols
