Greetings, all.

I'm the creator of LyXBook, and I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have about it.

When I first created the LyXBook layouts, I licensed some of them based on the purchase of my Microsoft Word add-in LyXConverter, which converts Word documents into LyX documents:

https://wiki.lyx.org/Tools/LyXConverter

However, I'm changing those licenses to be the same as that used for LyX itself, the GNU General Public License:

https://www.lyx.org/License

That means you can freely use and distribute any of the LyXBook layouts (including those that are part of LyXConverter) any way you please. I hope you find them useful.

Thanks to all of you for making LyX such a great piece of software.

Best wishes,
Jack Lyon

If anyone has information about LyXBook, here is where I found out about it:

LyX wiki | Layouts / Layouts <https://wiki.lyx.org/Layouts/Layouts>

So, the official LyX wiki shows quite a few options when it comes to layouts.  Under the section on "book" layouts, you will find this entry:

  * LyXBook <http://www.editorium.com/ftp/LyXBookSampler.zip> is a
    collection of layouts from the Editorium
    <http://www.editorium.com/> designed specifically for typesetting
    books in LyX (novels, histories, biographies, and so on).

    As I wrote in my reply, it is derived from memoir.
