Synopsis
Excerpt from The Practical Use of Books and Libraries: An Elementary Manual
To open a stiff, new book, hold it with the back down on a table, letting the lids lie open so that they also touch the table. Open the leaves a short distance from the front and then an equal distance from the end, gently pressing them down; open a few more leaves at the front and again at the end, and so on until you reach the middle of the book. Do this to ease the book, a couple of times if necessary.
