Une bibliothèque by Albert Cim
"Une bibliothèque" by Albert Cim is a practical guidebook on books and bibliophilia written in the early 20th century. The work focuses on the art of acquiring, classifying, preserving, and utilizing books, catering to book lovers and the intellectually curious, particularly the youth, who seek a deeper appreciation for literature. The opening of the book introduces the author's intent to make this work accessible to those passionate about books, emphasizing that it
is not just for bibliographers and scholars, but for anyone who wishes to understand the material aspects of books. Early chapters discuss the essential elements of a book, such as paper quality and binding, while addressing the importance of choosing the right materials and storage methods for maintaining a personal library. Cim expresses the belief that books should be cherished for their content and potential for personal growth, rather than just their aesthetic value, establishing a foundation for the exploration of bibliophilic practices throughout the text.
