From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape

A Spellbook is a list of spells available for casting to a player. There are currently three spellbooks: the standard spellbook, the Ancient Magicks spellbook, and the Lunar spellbook. A player may only cast spells from their current spellbook, and if they wish to use spells from another spellbook they must change to that spellbook.

It is possible to switch to and from Ancients to Lunar, without switching back at the former altar. For example, it is possible for players who are on Ancient Magicks to pray at the Astral Altar, where their spellbook will switch to Lunar. If players wish, they may pray again to deactivate the Lunar Spellbook and get their spellbooks switched to Modern.

Standard

The standard spellbook contains 64 spells.

The standard spellbook had different icons before the run energy upgrade.

The standard spellbook, also known as the modern magic spellbook, is available to all players, whereas the other spellbooks can only be unlocked through members quests.

This spellbook contains the most spells, as well as the most types of spells; offensive, skills, enchanting and teleportation. It is also the only spellbook with spells that players with a low Magic level can cast.

Jagex updated the spellbook icons in the run energy upgrade on 9 June 2009^[1].

Ancient Magicks

The Ancient Magicks spellbook contains 29 spells.

A player casting a teleport spell from the Ancient Magicks spellbook.

The Ancient Magicks spellbook is composed of offensive and teleportation spells. It becomes available to players after they complete the Desert Treasure quest.

To change to the Ancient Magicks spellbook, or back from the Ancient Magicks to the standard spellbook, players must enter the Jaldraocht Pyramid in the desert south of Al Kharid and west of Pollivineach from the rear and pray at the altar.

Lunar Spells

There are 40 Lunar Spells.

A player casting Moonclan Teleport from the Lunar Spells spellbook.

The Lunar spellbook is the only spellbook that does not contain any offensive spells. Instead, it is composed of defensive, self-help, skill-related, and beneficial spells. The Spell Book Swap (a level 96 spell) allows players to change to another spellbook for one cast.

The Lunar spellbook becomes available to a player after completion of the Lunar Diplomacy quest. More Lunar Spells can be unlocked after completing Dream Mentor. To change to the Lunar spellbook or back from the Lunar to the standard spellbook, a player must pray at the astral altar on the south-east side of Lunar Isle.
