Q: How can We Differentiate Between a Book Collector and a Person Suffering from Bibliomania?

A: A book collector is really interested in books. He arranges them well and takes good care of his collection. On the other hand, a patient with bibliomania will collect any type of book, irrespective of whether he already has it or not. He does not arrange the books well. Collecting books becomes an obsession and this obsession interferes with his personal and social life.
