The origin, creation, or development of books; the process by which books come into being.
From 'biblio-' (book) plus Greek 'genesis' (origin, creation). This rare term combines a Greek prefix commonly used in English academic language with a root meaning 'creation' or 'origin.'
The creation of books involves printing, publishing, writing, editing, illustrating—so 'bibliogenesis' sounds scientific but is actually describing something we already have simpler words for. It's an example of how academics sometimes use fancy terms to sound more authoritative.
