A bookplate is a rubber stamp placed on a book to record the name of its owner and usually includes a related drawing.
This type of personalized marking gives books a distinctive element of originality and ownership.. Your books, those of your relatives or friends will no longer mysteriously disappear or be misunderstood stolen from other people's shelves. So don't hesitate to buy a bookplate to ensure that your books always come home, or at least to know who they belong to.
Ex libris. “A bookplate stamped in a book to record the owner’s name.” This masculine noun comes from the Latin phrase ex libris (literally ‘from (among) the books’), which was usually written in the book followed by the owner’s name, to indicate that the copy was “from So-and-So’s books.” As a phrase, it should be written as two words, but for the noun, the single spelling exlibris is recommended (as with exvoto or exabrupto, other nouns derived from Latin phrases): “I even ordered a nice bookplate to emphasize my possession” (El Mundo [Spain] 20.4.96). However, the two-word spelling is also acceptable: “Some of the copies […] have their owner’s handwritten bookplate.”
