Searching for permanent boosters

BG1 had tomes scattered around like candy. I kept the tome of int boost to the bitter end to give it to Imoen the mage in 2 although it didn't seem to make the transition. There don't seem to be many permanent ability booster in 2. Just something I read about but haven't got to yet, a fortune booth that only works once? What else do you do to boost Imoen to 18 int for the bonuses and highest level spells?

    With ToB, you do not need 18 int to cast level 9 spell. You only need int to learn them. Basically, buy a potion of genius (worth nothing in BG2), drink it, learn your spells, you are fine.

    If you really wanna boost your INT on a NPC, you only have 2 ways to do so:
    Machine of Lum the Mad which you will see while going through Watcher s Keep
    Deck of many things (Int boost is for mage only), in Watcher s Keep as well.

    Yeah, until the very end and TOB, BG2 has no permanent stat boosters. Still, Arunsun's right that potions of genius serve well enough for 9th level spell purposes.
