Grimoires are often multi-volume sets, and are *always* linked to the proper node on the Saint's Plane. However, every adept usually has a personal copy (Page 165 - under Making Grimoires).

If you want to haul it along on a trip, feel free. But if it gets stolen/destroyed/used to start a fire on a 'Cold 14w3' night, then you've got to make another. I doubt your Academy/Order/Fellows will be keen on just giving you another...
