Bibliophilia 📖 The love of Books
A bibliophile or bookworm is an individual who loves and frequently reads books.
The classic bibliophile is one who loves to read, admire and collect
books, often amassing a large and specialized collection. Bibliophiles
usually possess books they love or that hold special value as well as
old editions with unusual bindings, autographed, or illustrated copies.
"Bibliophile" is an appropriate term for a minority of those who are
book collectors.
Some use the term "bibliomania" interchangeably with "bibliophily", and
in fact, the Library of Congress does not
use the term "bibliophily," but rather refers to its readers as either
book collectors or bibliomaniacs.
