According to the manual and the skill descriptions in the game, spell book skills do affect your ability to cast spells: how many green circles you get.

This matches my experience playing the game, and was very obvious with my Ranger. His realm skills went up slowly, because he didn't cast many spells. But his Alchemy skill went up quickly, because I had him do a lot of potion mixing.

I could see the power circle colors getting better from the increased Alchemy skill, even when the realm skill hadn't changed.

Spell book skills are the main factor in learning spells, with a small (10%) boost from the realm skill for the spell.

Realm skills are the main factor in successfully casting a spell, with a small boost from the spellbook skill. For a Bishop, the highest skill for a spell book containing the spell is used.
