Yeah it's mostly based on finding the Magi who knows the magic books, and whether or not your skill level is high enough that you can reasonably perform it (to buy/learn permanently). Perks are just personal for your character.
Although the strangest thing happened to me today. SPOILER BLEAK FALLS BARROW. I was running through the first dungeon (Ancient Nord crypt), and I somehow managed to get like 6 Draugr on my tail. I was fleeing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUkRatOSxaI (stopping of course to open any chests I see being a Mage/Scoundrel focusing my points in Pickpocket and Lockpick). I found a scroll of Guardian Circle in one chest, and a scroll of Fire Storm in the next. In an epic moment, I cast the Guardian Circle to send the bones fleeing, and then as they gathered I obliterated them with the Fire Storm XD
