Ex Libris Stamps – The perfect gift
Bookplates are a perfect gift for any lover of books and reading. It may never have crossed your mind to buy a personalized bookplate to give to said people. The "easiest" (in quotes) is give away a book, but I am sure that a bookplate will also be something they will never forget. They'll even thank you for it, as it allows them to show ownership of their books every time someone opens them.
Bookplates are labels or stamps that are included in books to make it known who they belong to. These property marks are pasted or stamped on the back of the book cover. They include the name of the owner, the library or the organization to which the book belongs, which is accompanied by a distinctive drawing / design and the word bookplate (although this does not always appear).

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. “Seal affixed to a book to record the name of its owner.” 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 “one of So-and-so’s books.” As an expression, it should be written in two words, but for the noun, the simple spelling ex libris is recommended (as is the case with ex voto or exabrupto, other nouns derived from Latin phrases): “Hasta me encarqué un bonito ex libris para remarcar mi propiedad” (Mundo [Esp.] 20.4.96). However, the two-word spelling is also acceptable: “Some of the copies […] possess the handwritten ex libris of their owner.”
