Bibliomania

  • Fanatical book collecting
  • Obsession with books

Nature

The passionate desire to handle, possess and accumulate books. This can lead to the ruination of the persons concerned.

Counter-claim

Bibliomania is considered one of the liberal forms of madness appropriate to older generations. In the past the results of obsessive book collection have ensured the conservation of important documents which would otherwise have been destroyed.
