I know that you can bring an InDesign document into a booklet as a page, such as the Caution Page. If I do this for 30+ booklets, do they all change? Is that a Library item? Are they dynamic? What is best practice?

Are you talking about one page that always needs to be the same in each book? There are, in fact, several ways to do this :) Pick one:

1. Make this single page a standalone InDesign document. Make a Book for all of your books; add the original document, and this new one.

2. Make this single page a standalone InDesign document, export as PDF, then place this same image in each of your books.

3. Make this single page a standalone InDesign document, and place it as an image in each of your books.

I don't have any personal experience with #3 but it sure sounds like that's the best way.
