One Spellbook for all NPCs

Hello everyone, I'm the DM of the game i'm playing with my friends and at the moment i'm trying to import every monster that exists in the books (5e) in roll20 so that I can drag in any of them at a moment's notice.  Unfortunately, while importing the CR 1 monsters that exist I realised that later on as monsters become more powerful and will undoubtedly have more spells to cast, that I'll have to import a lot of the spells that don't exist in the SRD more than once. So i've decided to create a single "spellbook" character sheet that would contain every spell out there from which I would call the spells via macros or token abilities. My question is, if this is actually possible without API or not. The most difficult at this point is when calling the spells from the spellbook character, for the spells to use the spell DC attributes of the selected monster instead of the original character sheet.

If the Spell Library Character's abilities reference @{selected|ATTR_NAME}, they they will work based on the selected token's attributes, rather than the Spell Library Character's attributes.  You would need to be certain that those attributes are present or you'll get errors, but it should work well when finished.
