Nine books are needed

Nine books are laid on the floor in a rectangle (see diagram).  The leader leaves the room and the players decide on a book.  The leader reenters the room and the assistant points to the books one at a time.  When he points to the selected book, the leader identifies it.

Solution: The assistant points to the first book in a certain way.  If he points to the center of the book, it means that the center book was the selected book.  If he points to the top right hand corner of the book, it means that the book in the top right hand corner was the selected book, etc.
