Before there was the internet, 1sttube, radio, film, and recorded music, there were books. The internet is basically an interconnected set of documents, and it's revolutionized the way knowledge is shared. But for thousands of years before that the only document aggregator available to spread stories and ideas was the humble book (and its primitive predecessor, the scroll). Even in our modern electronic era, I have a feeling that books will be around for many years to come, even if the printed page appears on an electronic screen in the new e-books.

What kind of videos are included in this category? Ones about book discussions, interviews with authors, and any movie or movie clip based on a book. I'll even include graphic novels in this category. No videos about the Bible, Koran, or other religious texts, please. They are much better suited to the Religion channel.
