Yes, lv 2 and above skills must be dropped by monsters or bought from other players...
Just a little info, lv 2 books start dropping in Cyoren Forest (and in areas with lv 36+ monsters)

best way is to buy books. if you se someone selling a book cheap even if its a much higher lvl why not buy it and toss in bank at a hotell.

and yes all books are dropping from mobs after skill lvl 1 and higher.

In my opinion buying books is a waste of money... I could find all my skill books by partying in higher lv places (like partying in maps with lv 6X monsters when I was lv 4X). Just ask your party for the book's name when you see a app/mage/wiz book, and if it's a book you don't have, ask the person who got it to give it to you... :)
But if you just can't find the book and it's an useful skill/upgrade, you can just buy it. :p

P.S: This is just how I do it. You don't need to follow this... XD

Addendum: This is how most of the appys, and other classes too do it. We need all the kron we can spare for other stuff. (Like pet quest items and pots to burn)
