The paper industry deals with the creation and processing of paper sheets, and further processing into quires and scrolls. There are three major ways to create paper for books and scrolls - each depending on a different raw material.
Raw Materials
Processing
The raw material defines which techniques, workshops and labors are used.
Papyrus
Papyrus can be directly made into sheets at a farmer's workshop using the Papermaking labor.
Parchment
Processing animal hides is more complex; you need to produce quicklime from calcium carbonate stones at a kiln, then process the quicklime to milk of lime at an ashery. Finally, the hide and milk of lime are used in a tanner's shop using the tanning labor to create a parchment sheet. For each sheet of parchment 1 hide is needed disregarding the size of the original animal.
If the hide is from a cow, it's called "vellum sheet", otherwise it will take on the name of the animal (i.e. pig parchment sheet, sheep parchment sheet).
Plant fibers
Cloth plants are milled to slurry in a mill, then pressed to a sheet in a screw press. Both processes use the Papermaking labor.
Finished goods
The sheets can then be further processed into finished goods.
Quires
1 sheet of paper can be crafted into 1 quire at a craftsdwarf's workshop using the Bookbinding labor.
Codices
After a quire has been filled with text it can be crafted into a codice at a craftsdwarf's workshop using the Bookbinding labor.
This requires 1 quire, 1 book binding and 1 unused thread (yes you can use animal hair thread for this).
Scrolls
Sheets of paper can be combined with a scroll roller at a craftsdwarf's workshop to create scrolls using the Bookbinding labor.
