What I did when engraving King Arthur might be of some help once adapted:

Have two files annotation-it.ily and  annotation-fr.ily where you 
define, as variables, the text of all the annotations you'll need 
(instrument or character names, footnotes, header variables, etc.).
You will then use those variables instead of their value.

You'll have to generate your books separately, as the "language" include 
has to be outside the \book block.

See enclosed files for a full example.

Jean-Charles
