if books are imported from version 1.7 or below, in 1.9 it will only show the first word written in it. If it is imported from 1.8, books are fine.

I can confirm this issue. Only the first word on each page is printed on any written book which I try to read from a version before the affected snapshots, in both singleplayer and multiplayer. Unsigned book & quill items with text in them do not seem to be affected by this bug, in singleplayer at least.
I have run tests using a backup of my world save from 1.8. By loading the world file in older snapshots, I have determined that this bug is apparently a lot older than anyone realized - it first appears, in fact, in 15w33c, as can be seen here: http://imgur.com/a/W05D1
