Paper

Paper was added to Alpha in the Seecret Friday 6 (v1.0.11) patch, and is used the same way in Beta. Paper can be crafted from Sugar Cane. Paper is currently (as of Beta 1.7.3) used to make books which are used to craft bookshelves and to make maps. Adding functionality to books in the form of writing in them (similarly to signs) remains a popular request; however, several mods exist to serve this purpose.

Trivia

 * Although in real life most paper is produced from wood pulp, paper can be made from sugar cane bagasse.
 * The update in which names of items were added came before cake, and the sugar cane was most commonly known as reeds.
 * It is unclear whether sugar cane will remain the required material to create paper.
