Actually, copyright law says you are not allowed to copy a work. Can't photocopy, can't scan, can't type out by hand, can't transcribe with a pencil. Doesn't matter whether it is for personal use or not. A fine line - particularly when it comes to enforcement, but worth noting the distinction - especially to anyone who might be thinking of working with Open Works.

Faust
You can't copy a complete work. You can copy portions (how big is a fuzzy area) but you can't share the copies with others except under certain conditions. But I think copying all of the spells from all of the books would be against the law even if you never intended to distribute them.
