What is the best villager to get emeralds from?

Question

I am grinding emeralds to save up for some mending books from a librarian villager. However, it costs 38 emeralds (the most expensive price for an enchanted book), and I am having trouble getting emeralds to save up for them (~10 minutes per emerald). I have several novice villagers; I just set up my villager trading hall:

Novice Weaponsmith: Default Novice trades
Apprentice Toolsmith: 15 Coal for 1 Emerald, 1 Emerald for Stone Axe + Default Apprentice trades
Novice Farmer: 20 Wheat for 1 Emerald, 1 Emerald for 6 Bread
Novice Armorer: 15 Coal for 1 Emerald, 5 Emeralds for Iron Helmet
Novice Librarian: 24 Paper for 1 Emerald, 38 Emerald + 1 book for 1 Mending book (target)

Which villager should I farm-trade with, and if none of those are preferable, other villagers can be used as well.

A Fletcher villager (with it's workplace block being the fletching table) that sells sticks for emeralds is a pretty decent and cheap trade. If you're able to make a dark oak, giant spruce, or giant jungle tree farm, or you just happen to have an over-abundance of wood, then this villager will prove to be very useful.

Either novice farmer, considering wheat is pretty easy to get, or novice armorer, because coal is easy to get.
