The source for the Tome through Poroggo blurbs are taken from Encyclopedia Eorzea's beastiary under their respective creature names. The Magic Broom is from in-game minion blurb. ^^ Went back and edited in more clear citations!

As for the level of sentience, or lack there of, that seems to be up to the mage. Matoya's broom servitors, for instance, have very limited cognition relevant only to their purpose. Taking the Tome lore on Sharlayan's magicked books, those didn't appear to have true sentience just... "programmed behavior" for lack of a better term, similar to carbuncles. You could theoretically magick your book to speak and nothing else. The magic broom minion's text seems to imply the whole quickening process requires a series of several, separate incantations.
