A university is just a group of buildings gathered around a library.

After doing some brief research, I found out that the usage of the word "bookworm" as a book lover came BEFORE "bookworm" in terms of things that eat pages in books. Also, in terms of the latter, they are not actually worms. They are different kinds of bugs. I guess, also in terms of the former, they are not actually worms. They are different kinds of people.
Wouldn't it be funny if bookworms destroyed all the books on fishing in a library? That would be like poetic justice. Especially if there was a poetry book on fishing.
