Are you, like me, a total bibliophile? You love books. You love having them around. You love reading them. You can never read just one at a time. You have stacks of books with bookmarkers in them at your desk, next to you favorite easy chair at home, next to the bed. You have started reading more books than you have finished. You love how they smell. You get a new book and bury your nose in to catch the wonderful scent of “new book.” Yes, it is that severe an affliction for the true book lover. Do you, like me, have books on the topics of: “the history of books” and “how to read a book” and even “the history of the bookshelf.” Yes, that’s right. I have a book that is devoted to the history of the bookshelf. I am not making this up.

Well, here is a great post sent to me by a friend on the proper care of books. Enjoy.
