Are spell books considered 1h weapons?

I plan on running Spellshield (Tank/Mage) and was wondering if one could equip a Sword and Spell book at the same time? Nothing on the wiki states if its a 1 or 2h weapon...unless I'm blind.

So lets combine these two things........you can use a spell book "barehanded" but you could ALSO channel the magic through an appropriate focus. Operative word there is appropriate. So while you could cast through something like a wand, orb or staff, a sword would not work normally. Maybe if you were a mage that had a fighter secondary, then that weapon would be an allowed focus.

To play devil's advocate: What makes a wand "appropriate" and a sword "inappropriate"?

maybe wands have cores made of phoenix feather/unicorn tail, but swords don't?
