Bibliophily

Bibliophily is the love of books--not necessarily for their content, but more because of their format. In other words a bibliophile loves books in general and may even collect them. A bookworm, on the other hand, loves to read and the format of what she is reading doesn't necessarily matter. Bibliophily derives from the Greek words for both book (biblio-) and love (-phily).
