they come from the header. It might be valuable to re-read 3.1.3 which states,
"A .ly file may contain any number of toplevel expressions, where a toplevel
expression is one of the following: An output definition, such as \paper,
\midi, and \layout. Such a definition at the toplevel changes the default
book-wide settings. If more than one such definition of the same type is
entered at the top level any definitions in the later expressions have
precedence."
So you can have only one toplevel \paper, although you can have a separate one
for each \bookpart.
